Typical Dog Behavior Problems and Solutions
-
December 26, 2024
People who own pets love the sound of a wagging tail hitting the floor in a steady beat. We want to give our dogs the best lives we can, but even the best pet owners have problems. “Difficult” behaviors can be hard to understand, like when a favorite pair of shoes goes missing or a dog barks all night and wakes up the neighbors.
Many dog owners don’t know that how their dog acts is a direct sign of how healthy and happy they are. A lot of the time, the answer isn’t just “more training,” but a more thorough look at how they live their lives. Giving your dog mental stimulation, physical care, and professional grooming can help it relax and become a good friend.
Here are six complete plans to help your dog live a longer, happier life.
-
Learning How to Speak Barking
Barking isn’t a “bad” thing; it’s just a way to talk to other people. But if your dog barks a lot, it means they think you’re not listening to what they’re saying. To deal with it, you need to be a detective.
- Wanting Attention: Your dog may be bored if they bark and look at you.
- Afraid or Aware: When a dog barks sharply and quickly, it usually means something is wrong.
- Boredom: If your dog barks all the time and it’s the same thing, they might have too much energy.
Instead of yelling “Quiet!”(which the dog might think is you barking with them), try changing the subject. Teach them the “settle” command or give them a treat that is very valuable when they stay calm during a trigger. Sometimes, a quick ten-minute walk is all they need to reset their nervous system.

Chewing with a purpose and skin health
We’ve all come home to find that a remote control or sofa cushion has been broken or chewed up. Adult dogs often chew to relieve stress or boredom, while puppies chew to ease the pain of teething.
But there is a hidden physical reason why people chew: their skin gets irritated. If a dog has dry skin, fleas, or matted fur, they might chew on themselves or things around them to forget about the pain. It’s very important to have a professional groom your pet on a regular basis. A groomer can find “hot spots” or parasites that you might not be able to see because your dog’s coat is so thick.To keep your furniture safe, give your pet things to chew on that are “biological.” Puzzle toys with healthy treats or tough rubber toys keep their jaws and brains busy, which keeps them from getting bored and breaking things.

Therapeutic grooming for people who are anxious about being apart
Separation anxiety is one of the hardest things for a pet owner to deal with. When you leave, the whining, pacing, and destructive behavior are all signs of real panic. Surprisingly, grooming can help with anxiety. If you do it gently and focus on rewards, grooming your pet can be a good way to bond with them. It lets your dog know that being handled and spending time in a structured setting is safe and fun.
We want Furry Luxury Livings Dog Hostel Jaipur to be like a “spa” for dogs. When you clean, brush, and pamper your dog, their cortisol levels go down.When you combine gradual desensitization training with regular grooming, your dog is often calmer. In this type of training, you leave the house for just a few minutes at a time.
-
Dealing with anger with calm confidence
Most of the time, aggression, whether it’s a low growl or a snap, comes from feeling insecure or needing space. To deal with this, you need to do two things: find out what causes it and make sure everyone can talk to each other clearly.
Dogs are very aware of energy. Professional groomers know how to “calm” their clients down. They calm people down by speaking softly and touching them steadily. We can teach dogs that they don’t have to be mean to keep themselves safe by giving them treats and praise when they are calm and behave well.

The “Dogwise” Method:
Training is not a battle of wills, it is a “dance that benefits both parties. “The old ways of being in charge have been replaced by the Dogwise Philosophy, which puts positive reinforcement first.
It’s simple: dogs do things to get treats. The best way to get your dog to behave is to give them a piece of kibble, a favorite squeaky toy, or an excited “Good boy!” right away. The key is to be consistent.If everyone in the family uses the same commands and rewards, the dog will know what the “house rules” are and feel safe.
At Furry Luxury Livings, we make sure that this idea is at the center of everything we do. We don’t just “watch” dogs; we do things with them that bring out their best qualities.

Total Wellness: There’s More to It Than You Think
People often think of grooming as a way to make a dog look good for a picture or as a “vanity” service. It is actually a very important part of preventive health care.
- Coat Integrity: Using pH-balanced, salon-quality shampoos keeps the skin’s natural oils from being stripped away, which stops dandruff and itching.
- Circulation: The brushing and massaging that happens during a professional bath gets blood flowing and helps the lymphatic system drain. People who own dogs often say that their pets act “like puppies again” after they get rid of those extra pounds.
Treating the coat and skin can help keep irritability from turning into behavioral issues.
