Doggijuana Padres' Picks

Doggijuana

Does your dog suffer from anxiety? Canines are known for their bravery and loyalty, but they also suffer from anxiety, just like humans. Luckily, there are natural, drug-free solutions that can help some dogs from becoming too stressed—Doggijuana’s Juananip and refillable dog toys.

Some pups may get more anxious than others, but every dog can find themselves in stressful situations. Some common anxiety triggers in dogs can include:

• Loud noises
• New places
• Separation anxiety
• Unfamiliar dogs and people
• Storms 

We always recommend consulting your vet if your pet suffers anxiety. However, if your pup doesn’t require prescription anxiety medication, your veterinarian may recommend over-the-counter solutions. This could include a homeopathic remedy like the plant Nepeta cataria—more commonly known as catnip

That’s right—catnip may have a calming effect on some dogs. Canines don’t have the intense attraction to catnip as felines. However, this plant can provide some dogs the same relaxed feeling while playing with Doggijuana toys stuffed with their proprietary blend of Juanip.

Just place a pinch of the Doggijuana dognip blend into the pouch built into the toy, then use it to play with your stressed pup. It takes around 20 to 30 for the nip to take effect—and just like cats, some dogs may not react to the herb. The combination of exercise and catnip can help offset the negative symptoms of anxiety and may make your dog feel better.

Doggijuana toys come in a variety of fun food shapes recognizable to many dogs. There are mouthwatering burgers, cheesy pizza slices, tacos, cookies and even donuts. They’re designed to look—just looking at them may make you hungry. And when you run out, just head to the store or go online to order Juananip refills.

Lack of exercise and playtime may sometimes cause anxiety in dogs. Thankfully, Doggijuana dog toys can help your stressed pup calm down naturally. Just be sure to keep dog treats and chews handy in case your pet gets the munchies.
