EBD068 The Dangers of Over-Aroused Dogs

How to help over-aroused dogs and everyone that’s effected to feel safe, calm and happy

Over-aroused dogs are a real problem that shows itself in a lot of different ways. In some cases, it can look like chasing cars, animals, or running along the fence. In other cases it can look like digging hundreds of holes in the yard or jumping on strangers. The extreme cases can be horrific and lead to people or other dogs getting seriously hurt.
No matter how it manifests on the outside, the cause of over-aroused dogs looks pretty common on the inside. Over-arousal has been linked to chronic high stress hormones, and while the solution may not happen overnight, there is definitely a way to get your dog feeling less stressed out, and more safe, calm and happy!
