3 Tips to Create a Pet-Friendly Home This Holiday Season
"Table manners aren't just reserved for people. Help prevent your pet from begging at the table by refraining from giving your pup food or attention. The best way to prevent pets from begging at the table is by training them when they are young to not beg for food. Whether that be at the table or while snacking on appetizers by the couch, pets can learn to be respectful of food."
"When you sit down for your holiday meals, place your pet in a crate or pen, or encourage him or her to go to their special place like his or her bed or a comfortable chair. Other solutions for averting your pet's attention from the holiday table is by providing your pet with an activity. This can look like a long-lasting treat or a puzzle toy that looks and tastes like the holidays."
Pandemic-era pets are aging and now must readjust to increased household activity during holidays. Homes should be made comfortable and pet friendly for guests and animals. Teach pets table manners by refraining from giving food or attention to prevent begging. Early training helps pets learn not to beg at the table or while people snack on the couch. If a pet cannot resist temptation, limit access by using a crate, pen, or a designated comfortable place such as a bed or chair. Provide engaging activities like long-lasting treats or puzzle toys. Avoid sharing human food because even tiny amounts of some foods can cause serious pet health issues.
