Coco and i flew from korea back to Canada and Coco did extremely well on the plane (so proud of her)

And now its 5.42 am EST (6.42 pm korea time) coco woke me up to play.
I think she's suffering from jet lag because this is normally the time we'd play and go for a walk.

Does anyone know how i can help her adjust to the time difference better????

I mean, I guess once school starts I gotta learn to get up at 6am to commute but still :P

It will prob take 2 days. I take the natural approach walk her when the sun is shining bright, then when it is twlight. Adjust her meal times to the new time zone. Good luck.

it has been 2 months since we've been back...

she gets up at 5.30 am and still barks... at this point i'm not sure if her getting at 5.30 am and barking viciously is jet lag or high protein diet or combination of both...

we're not sure what to do!!!! we've run out of ideas! she goes for a walk 3 times a day! dad takes her out around 8am, then an hour long free running at a park at 5.30 and one sometime between 9-11pm depending on when i go to bed and she still gets up at 5.30am
