Dogs can be very distrustful of strangers. Not only does this cause anxiety in your canine companion, it can also make life uncomfortable for your neighbors. Here are a few easy ways to get your dog used to your neighbors.

Try inviting your neighbors over to say hello to your dog. If you spot your neighbors outside, you can also ask if you can bring your dog over to meet them. This is an especially good idea if they have a dog too. If your pets get along, you can schedule doggy play dates!

Hunting down your neighbors and making them interact with your dog may seem like a bit much. Instead, hang a baggy of treats next to the sidewalk and ask your neighbors to provide your dog with a treat on their way by.
