What to do if a dog suffers from mental illness
Pampering is the most undesirable behavior, because if you raise a dog as a child out of loneliness or treat it as a child, the dog may not even know whether it is a dog or a human being. Moreover, it is not OK to be too concerned about dogs. The owner is extremely anxious and irritable when the dog is a little bit of a problem, which makes the dog see that you are panicking, which will have a negative impact on the dog. It is easy to cause dogs to suffer from mental illness. What should we do if the dog suffers from it?
Regardless of whether the dog is really suffering from mental illness, when a pet dog shows a different behavioral state, parents should be vigilant and it is necessary to take the dog to undergo examination.
A doctor said that to determine whether a pet dog suffers from mental illness, you can observe the dog's mental state and behavior. When you find that dogs are always doing the same thing repeatedly, this chart is called common behavior. Most of the time, dogs do this kind of common behavior when they are very nervous. For example, a dog keeps licking the same part of himself; likes to lick strangers all the time; yawns all the time, often lingers on patches, frequently scratching his ears and heads or chasing his tail. If the dog keeps showing these behaviors, parents should be alert.
To treat a dog's mental illness, the cooperation of doctors and parents is also required. From medical treatment to daily life management, all planning must be re-arranged. Dogs with mental illness may need to take some medications, of course these medications are prescribed by veterinarians, and owners cannot give their pet dogs any medicine. In addition, parents should provide pet dogs with a safe and comfortable living environment. The most important thing is to give the dog a sense of security enough so that it can always keep its spirit relaxed, which is very helpful in treating mental illnesses of pet dogs.
