Maintaining a sense of normalcy in households can get tricky when isolating because of coronavirus for all family members, including the four-legged ones. Sundays and dog experts share some tips and considerations for how dog parents can get through this extremely weird time period.

Just like people - every dog is different when it comes to the number of times a day that is “normal” for them. Your dog should poop at least once a day and there should be some consistency in the number of times they poop.

Wild canids are frequently seen eating grass in their natural habitat.
