Boltz- Summer Stress

We don’t know when it happened, but sometime in Boltz’s life, bees became an obsession.  During the summer season, Boltz has the stress of looking, ducking and running from the variety of insects that frequent Minnesota’s great outdoors.  On an overcast and cooler summer day, he’s right with the pack, but heat and humidity mean bugs and that means Boltz makes an upper enclosure retreat underground.  This isolation can be problematic as the rest of the pack members treat his anxiety and retreat as a weakness and he can be the focus of some unwanted attention when he comes back down the hill at night.  In order to overcome this summer stress, we are trying to devise ways to give him a distraction, but so far, there hasn’t been much success to change his mind
