Here's a tip for your restless pet. If it's nap or night time, and your pet won't sleep or rest quietly, put on very soft music in the room your pet is located. Remember not too loud and make sure it is soft relaxing music. Your pet will sleep like a baby.
I believe the best thing to help a dog sleep is exercise. A tired dog is a happy dog!!! It's been so hot here in Florida though that I don't dare take my dogs out. Even with water available, it's just too risky to walk them. As soon as the weather cools down a bit we will start walking again.
First step is to make sure they are treated for fleas. I use advantage,Its been so hot here this last month. I give my dogs a bath in the evening, add soothing balm on their feet and message it in. The nights I do this, they sleep like little angels. I also keep chews on hand as a way to keep them busy, I buy them from sitstay.com.
