Get the Best Canine Companionship Anxiety Relief in Idaho from These 9 Dog Breeds
There is more than one way to get anxiety relief. Medications are an option and a doctor can assist with that. If you and your physician decide to pursue non-medicinal avenues for anxiety relief, there are several options.
Talking to a therapist or friend can help. Taking care of your body with regular exercise, eating well-balanced meals, and getting enough sleep help with anxiety and have positive side effects. Volunteer and be active in helping other people, you feel better and help someone else.

What has worked wonders in our household is a dog. Sometimes training a new puppy can be hard, but the work together between dog and owner can be a bonding experience. Some people opt for an older companion that is already house-trained and ready to love you unconditionally. There are some dog breeds that are known to be wonderful at helping with anxiety.
Which Anxiety Ridding Dog Breed is Best for Your Idaho Family?
If you’re thinking bigger babies are the lovable lummoxes that will fit you best, there are a few awesome options. Aside from needing a snow shovel to pick up poop, there’s not much to not love about these breeds.
Bernese Mountain Dog - They are best with a good walk every day which helps with anxiety as well. After that, snuggle time and people time are the best way to care for each other.
Great Dane - A big loving heart for a big loving puppy. Loyal and protective, their playtime needs to be away from the china cabinet.
Golden Retriever - Considered one of the most obedient and family-friendly dogs, their gentle nature exudes a calming effect for all those around them.
Labrador Retriever - Happy faces are all you can expect from these big beauties. Exercise is key, so be ready for lots of ball throwing.
For those with smaller tastes, there are plenty of pooches to fit your anti-anxiety needs.
Chihuahua - We have a chihuahua mix at home. She’s not yappy or grumpy toward the doorbell. She bonds with you by gazing into your eyes until becoming one with your soul. This fierce lap sitter will hold you down in snuggles all day.
Pembroke Welsh Corgi - Had one for 12 years and would do it again in a heartbeat. This breed is easy to train and provides tension-relieving playtime, but be ready for plenty of fur. Robot vacuums help.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - For such a fancy name, their temperament is ideal for a lap dog. You get a companion because you don’t want to be alone, and this breed definitely doesn’t want to be without you either.
Yorkshire Terrier - Companionable and supposed to cause fewer allergy troubles than some other breeds, offering love and support when training is all you need to remember.
Pug - These goofy guys didn’t get hit in the face with a frying pan, but they sound like it. Loud breathing aside, they are loving and pretty chill.
