Aw she sounds like a lovely companionLoved going out for walks and used to enjoy a lot of camping trips together. Did suffer from separation anxiety so used to take her to a dog sitter whilst I was at work. Enjoyed car journeys with her on the front seat next to me. Was my very loving companion.
She had teeth problems and now feed my next dog wet food and dried but not mixed together trying to make sure she uses her teeth to chew. Dried fish skin as a treat.
I guess that's one of the things to consider when getting a Cavalier - they are prone to separation anxiety.
Thankfully I'm home most of the time.
I see. I've heard that's common with small dog breeds.
This is news to me. So it is important they chew, for the sake of the teeth? I was planning on giving my (future) dog good quality dry food, however soak it for a few minutes before mealtime. I've heard it releases aromas into the air that makes it pleasant for the dogs to eat.
As well as making sure they hydrate enough.
If I do this but make sure my dog gets options to chew on, do you think that be okay?
Great tips with the dried fish skin. Thanks!
