Too Little Sleep Can Cause Behavior Issues

Did you know that dogs that have erratic sleep cycles can be pushed to exhaustion? Dogs require 17 hours of sleep but if it is a restime that continues to be interuppted by small children, multiple energetic dogs, or if your dogs lives in the yard, constant stimulation of sounds, sights and smells from the neighborhood or even wildlife in the area can cause sleep deprivation. Why is this important? Dogs that don't have the time to rest and refuel from play and training will usually become more stressed and may have more behavior problems such as barking, digging, aggression and jumping! Help your dog become stable, balanced and relaxed, allow them to have their area to rest and sleep uninterrupted.
