If you routinely experience gas pains and bloating, keep a log of everything you eat and drink. When you have symptoms, check your log and note foods that might be giving you trouble. Then see if cutting those foods from your diet helps. For example, you might pass gas excessively and feel bloated after eating a big bowl of ice cream. Limiting or cutting dairy products could provide relief. Foods affect people differently, so try to find out what's causing your issues. You might find that all common gas-causing foods give you trouble, or that 1 or 2 items cause your symptoms. The most common gas-causing foods contain hard-to-digest carbohydrates, fiber, and lactose. Try cutting dairy products from your diet for a week, and see if your symptoms improve. If you're still gassy, try avoiding beans, broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage. If you still experiencing gas, try reducing your fiber intake. See if cutting down on whole grains and bran helps. Sorbitol is an artificial sweetener that causes gas. While sorbitol can make you gassy on its own, products that contain it often cause or worsen gas in other ways. For example, carbonated beverages cause gas, and soft drinks that contain sorbitol can be even harder on your digestive system. Swallowing air can cause bloating, and you swallow more air when you chew gum and suck on hard candies. You might be even more gassy if you're chewing gum or candy contains sorbitol. Beans and some fruits and veggies contain carbohydrates that are hard to digest. Avoid or eat less broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, apples, pears, prunes, and prune juice. Fruits and veggies are an important part of a healthy diet, so don't cut them out entirely. Instead, go for options that are easier to digest, such as lettuce, tomatoes, zucchini, avocados, berries, and grapes. To make beans easier to digest, soak them in warm water for at least an hour before cooking them. Be sure to discard the soaking water and cook them in fresh water. Do your best to avoid greasy, high-fat foods, which can slow digestion and cause gas buildup. Examples include fatty cuts of red meat, processed meats (such as bacon), and fried foods. Swap these for leaner, more digestible items, like poultry, seafood, egg whites, and easy-to-digest fruits and veggies. Larger particles of food are harder to digest, so chew your food until it's liquefied. Additionally, the more you chew, the more saliva you produce. Saliva contains digestive enzymes, which break down your bites and make your meals easier to digest. Take smaller bites and chew at least 30 times, or until the food feels like a mushy paste. Probiotics help to promote a healthy gut biome, which means that the bacteria in your digestive system are balanced. Include probiotic foods or a probiotic supplement in your daily diet. Probiotic foods include: Yogurt Kefir Sauerkraut Miso soup Kimchi

Summary: Try to keep track of which foods cause your symptoms. Cut 1 food group at a time from your diet to find the culprit. Avoid items that contain sorbitol, such as gum, candy, and soft drinks. Stay away from beans, vegetables, and fruits that cause gas. Work on cutting fatty foods from your diet. Chew your food thoroughly before swallowing. Include probiotic foods or a supplement.

It's important to give your Cavalier new experiences, especially while he's still very young (before 18 weeks old). He'll consider the new sights and sounds to be normal which can help build his confidence. This socialization will also prevent over-anxious behavior as he gets older. Make sure your Cavalier meets a wide range of people, dogs, and experiences. You can take your dog to a socialization class run by your vet or a reputable trainer in the area. Train your Cavalier in small doses and often. Keep the sessions to five minutes at a time and do them three times a day. Your dog will respond better to this than if you do one long half-hour session. Choose a time when your dog isn't hungry or tired, so he pays attention. Stop the session if he looses interest. Always try to end on a positive note, with a command you know your dog can do. Use a clicker to teach your dog to associate a click-clack sound with receiving a reward when he obeys a command. Practice by throwing a treat on the floor and let your Cavalier eat it. As soon as he goes to the treat, press the clicker. Repeat this till he associates the click-clack sound with looking for a treat. Start giving commands and when he obeys, press the clicker as his reward. For example, when your Cavalier toilets outside, immediately press the clicker so he knows he's being rewarded for toileting in the right place. When you use the clicker training, always start with a verbal command word. For example, say "Sit" and click once he follows the command. Once he's comfortable following verbal commands with the clicker reward, stop using the clicker, but continue to use verbal commands. For example, you could run a few steps away from your Cavalier while slapping your leg and calling his name. He'll instinctively want to keep close to you, so this is good practice in responding to his name. Your Cavalier will only associate punishment with you instead of the action you dislike. This can damage your relationship, actually making it harder to train him. Instead, use positive reinforcement with verbal praise and rewards like treats or exercise. If your dog misbehaves, you can firmly say "No." Avoid giving him a lot of attention or telling him off. Any attention is a reward for your dog. If your Cavalier grabs something he shouldn't and you haven't trained him to give it back, distract him with a toy or some food. Take the object while he's distracted.
Summary: Expose your dog to others. Choose good times to train. Clicker train your dog. Use verbal commands. Never hit or yell at your dog.
