In this episode of The Doodle Pro® Podcast, I share science-based strategies to help your Doodle adjust calmly to daylight saving time and other life transitions like travel, holidays, or back-to-school season.
These insights come straight from my bestselling book, Your Doodle’s Daily Schedule Blueprint™, specifically the section on Adapting to Life and Seasonal Changes.

Why Doodles Struggle with Daylight Saving Time
Doodles and other dogs follow natural light and predictable patterns—not clock time. When daylight saving begins or ends, their internal rhythms are disrupted. You might notice early-morning barking, pacing, or restless evenings as their body clock adjusts. Maintaining consistent cues and gentle schedule changes helps your Doodle feel secure again.
The 3-Day Gentle Reset Plan
Day 1: Shift meals and walks by 15 minutes.
Day 2: Another 15-minute shift.
Day 3: One more 15-minute shift to complete the hour.
Keep anchor cues like your morning greeting, bedtime routine, and calm enrichment activities the same. These small, predictable signals tell your Doodle that everything is still okay—even when the clock changes.
Calm Enrichment Over Extra Exercise
Many pet parents try to “wear out” their dog with more activity, but overstimulation can make adjustment harder. Instead, focus on sniff walks, slow feeders, or snuffle mats. Gentle enrichment calms your Doodle’s nervous system and reinforces the routine stability they crave.
Adapting Beyond Daylight Saving Time
The same principles apply to other routine changes—vacations, visitors, or seasonal schedule shifts. With consistent cues and gradual transitions, you’ll help your Doodle stay balanced all year long.
