These Neighbor Dogs Built a Bond Through a Fence
These two dogs have run back and forth along their shared fence for a while, causing them to have built a friendship. So, the owner decided to make an introduction happen without a fence between them. The pictures are priceless. Clearly, these dogs are the best of friends, and the pictures show it.

Calming Beds: Do They Work for Anxious Dogs?
Many dogs suffer from some level of anxiety. Some common reasons include thunderstorms and separation anxiety. These pups might have a hard time settling down and resting. Calming beds are donut-style beds with bolstered sides, and they're meant to make the dog feel safe. 

For these calming beds to work, they must meet your dog's specific needs, which might require some trial and error. Cave-like beds are good for dogs needing extra coverage and protection. Lower sides are better for senior dogs, so they don't have to struggle to get into bed. Self-warming beds are great for colder climates because they provide extra warmth and comfort for your pup. 

While there isn't much research yet on the benefits of these beds, it definitely can't hurt to provide your dog with a little extra love and comfort. Many owners have noticed an improvement in behaviors. Pair the beds with additional training and other positive forms of treatment, and you can help your dog overcome fear and anxiety.
