As i mentioned yesterday, our Danes had a hard time adjusting to our move. Here is a tip that you might want to try to help your furry friend adapt to their new environment a little easier. It actually begins before you move them. Something we did not do.
Before the move
Begin packing well in advance so your pet becomes accustomed to changes in their environment.
If your routine will alter after the move, gradually alter it before the move.
Therefore, change play times and walk times a bit. If your move will take you from an urban environment to a suburban or rural one (or vise versa) introduce your pet to new environs and assess their response.
If you have concerns about how your pet might react to these changes, consult with a veterinary behaviorist to develop a treatment plan for your pet.
As soon as you know your new address, purchase new identification tags for each pet. If your pet is microchipped, call the microchip manufacturer to update the database with your new contact information.
It never occured to us until reading this tip that we have not changed our dogs microchip information. Luckily it is connected with our vetinarian. This is on our to do list today.
