What if there’s a way to help your dog build tolerance against common sound triggers? Desensitization for dogs is used to gradually modify dog behavior. Young puppies and dogs are exposed to sound triggers like barking, fireworks and doorbell, starting at a low volume. Pairing this with treats, toys and praise creates a positive experience through counterconditioning. Desensitization with counterconditioning are often used to help dogs who have already shown fear and reactivity to particular trigger sounds. It is important to identify and understand your dog’s threshold to the volume and intensity of the sounds to avoid too much stress. Consistency is key to achieve real progress and positive results. Always consult with a Behavioral Veterinarian for professional help. #dog #dogsofinstagram #puppy #dogs #dogstagram #love #instadog #doglover #chowchow #dogcreator #barkcreator #reels #thewolfandbears #animals #fireworkssounds #desensitization #dogtraining #kennel #puppytraining #puppysocialization #barking #doorbell #dogreactivity
