Michigan humane offers pet routine transition tips

Back-to-school season is here and aside from big changes in routines for kids and parents, it’s also a big adjustment for pets.

Michigan Humane shared some advice to help pets have a smooth start to the school year. Recommendations include having a gradual transition to new routines, such as changing mealtimes and walk times over the course of several days. Michigan Humane also said to incorporate playtime and quality time into your new schedule. Another suggestion is considering a dog daycare or pet walking service.
