Mental Wellness Basics Every Owner Should Know

Boredom causes problems. A mentally under-stimulated Pom will find ways to entertain themselves—chewing furniture, excessive barking, digging. Give them better options.
Training is mental exercise. Teaching new tricks isn't just cute—it's tiring for their brain. Even five minutes of training can mentally exhaust them in a good way.
Rotate toys regularly. Don't leave all toys out all the time. Rotate them every few days so they stay interesting. What's old becomes new again.
Anxiety needs intervention. If your Pom is genuinely anxious or fearful, don't ignore it hoping they'll toughen up. Get help from a vet or behaviorist before it worsens.
Mental fatigue beats physical. Fifteen minutes of problem-solving can tire them out more than an hour walk. Use puzzle feeders, sniff games, and training sessions strategically.
Calm environments help anxious dogs. If your Pom is nervous, constant chaos makes it worse. Give them a quiet space where they can decompress and feel safe.
