Something I wish I knew sooner about having an anxious dog: the magic of decompression walks. 🐾
On especially anxious days, instead of long, structured outings, I’ll take my pup to a quiet spot and let her just… sniff. For 10–15 minutes she explores scents, unwinds, and actually relaxes. Bonus: experts say 15 minutes of sniffing can equal an hour of walking when it comes to mental stimulation!
Pairing these sniff sessions with True Leaf Calming Treats has been a total game-changer. Especially on days I’m out longer or stuck on calls all day. With natural h**p seed, chamomile, and lemon balm, they help take the edge off so she can feel more at ease.
