Twice a year, human societies reset their clocks — and in doing so, quietly disrupt the inner worlds of the animals who live by our rhythms. When Spain turns back its clocks this weekend, dogs will feel the shift in their bodies before their owners notice it in their behavior. The Royal Canine Society reminds us that for puppies, elderly dogs, and those already carrying the weight of illness, this small institutional change can become a genuine biological burden — one that patience, preparation, and consistency can meaningfully soften.

Pet owners may increase spending on veterinary consultations, behavioral training services, and wellness products to help animals adjust to time changes. Households with vulnerable pets (puppies, seniors, sick animals) face potential short-term increased pet care costs and time investment in routine adjustments.
