While moving is often stressful, it does symbolize a new beginning and exciting experience for you. However, before you move, you have to realize that your dog might not feel the same way.
Dogs thrive on routine and any sudden changes to what they’re already used to can make them anxious and stressed. That said, here’s how you are able to make moving a less stressful event for your dog.
Mindset and Preparation
Prior to moving day, do your best to prep your dog as much as you can. Keep its daily routine, but add the following to get him or her acclimated to the pending changes:
- When packing in the presence of your dog, constantly reassure it and give it treats to reduce its stress about the major changes in your home. If some familiar items in your home are getting packed up, your dog may get anxious about these sudden changes.
- If your dog will be traveling in a carrier or crate, make sure that it is used to it. Make it a safe and comfortable space in your home where your dog will think of it positively. When moving day comes, the familiarity of the crate can help reduce your dog’s stress.
- Most dogs like road trips, but if your dog hasn’t been on one, then try a short one with him or her in the crate. This way, your dog can get acclimated to both the crate and the car ride.
As moving day gets closer, increase the length of your car rides to help it cope. Reward it with treats and/or affection to give it good memories to associate with these trips.
