Hi there! It sounds like your furry friend might be getting into a bit of mischief. Dogs often act out due to boredom, anxiety, or even just being full of energy. If your pup isn't getting enough mental and physical stimulation, they might resort to "naughty" behavior like chewing on furniture, getting into trash, or excessive barking.
First, consider increasing their exercise and playtime. This can help burn off energy and provide necessary mental stimulation. Puzzle toys can keep their minds engaged while you’re busy. Also, try to maintain a consistent routine to alleviate anxiety.
Keep an eye out for signs that might indicate something more serious, like sudden changes in behavior, lethargy, lack of appetite, or any signs of discomfort. If you notice these, there might be an underlying health issue or stressor causing the behavior.
For any continued behavioral issues or if you’re concerned about your dog's health, it's always a good idea to consult with a veterinarian. Feel free to book a video consult with us on Dial A Vet, so we can chat in detail about your dog’s antics and ensure they’re happy and healthy!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
