Greenies® dental chews are 96% digestible - that's more than your average dry dog food (80-85%). That means that your dog's body can easily absorb and use all those good vitamins and minerals that we've added to the formula!
Soluble:
Greenies® dental chews are easy to digest and highly soluble (that means that they break down easily in the digestion process). We talked to a lot of nutritionists and scientists and discovered that the key to solubility lies in the proteins used to make the product. We use 4 very high-quality easily digested proteins as the building blocks of the new chewy recipe:
Gelatin
Wheat protein isolate
Soy protein isolate
Sodium caseinate
This protein combination gives Greenies® dental chews it's irresistible chewiness and is the reason why the product will break down quickly in your dog's digestive system.
Breaking Up Is Easy to Do:
Not only does the new toothbrush have more nooks and crannies to clean teeth it also has more natural break points to help a dog naturally chew it into small easily-digested pieces.
Veterinarians recommend that pet owners give their pet's teeth the same level of care and concern that they give their own. Neglecting your dog's oral health can lead to serious health issues that go way beyond the gum line and can contribute to liver kidney and heart disease. But it's not easy! Most dogs don't like having their teeth brushed unless they've been trained to accept it when they were puppies.
Greenies® dental chews can help. Used once a day Greenies® dental chews will keep your dog's teeth spar

Feb 4, How to Treat Separation Anxiety in Dogs - Dog Separation Seperation Anxiety Solutions by Cesar Millan

Separation anxiety in dogs happens because they do not like the feeling to be left alone in the house.

Dog behavior

Dog separation anxiety is actually the main contribution to other dog behavior problems like biting, chewing, digging, barking and etc.


If you are giving a lot of affection to your dog day in and day out, the chance is that your dog will experience separation anxiety when you are not arround. It is because he is very attached to you and no body else in the house can replace you.


Dogs are social animals, they always need accompaniment. They also develop the preference of like and dislike certain people. Dogs are really fond of people who give them a lot of attentions and affections. Some dog breeds, such as Cocker Spaniels and Weimaraners, can develop seperation anxiety easier compare with other big dog breeds because they need constant companionship.

Separation Anxiety in Dogs


As mentioned earlier, the main contributed cause is when the dog is separated from the person he is closely attached. Some other factors can be as below:-

Sudden change of your house environment. (eg: move to a new house)
You just bought or adopted the dog from pet store or shelter.
Separation from his mother or littermates.

To solve the dog separation anxiety problem, you need to teach your dog to be independent no matter if you are in the house or you are away. So, sometimes you are in the house, restrict yourself from giving him too much affections. This is expecially true if he is begging for your affection which you SHOULD ignore him. If you are living with family members, some of the family members should give almost the same amount of affection like you do. This is to prevent your dog from being too attached to you only.


If your dog has developed Separation Anxiety, you can try the step-by-step techniques below:-

Every time before you are out, command your dog in the sitting position near the door.
Pretend that you are going away by closing the door and you should hear his whining (if he has developed separation anxiety).
Then, you open the door and ask him to quiet; this will reduce his anxiety for seeing you away.
You may continue the step 2 but this time, you increase the duration before opening the door again. This should help to increase the time before your dog becomes worry of your absence.
Each time, you repeat the closing, hear his whine and open the door to ask him to quiet him up steps for a longer duration of time until you do not hear his whine.

If you do it right from the above steps, separation anxiety issue in your dogs should be fixed. Please not that you SHOULD NOT give him a kiss or saying good bye everytime you leave the house, because this will intensify him to miss you more - separation anxiety.
