Dogs suffer from anxiety which leafs to several behavioral issues. U dog can suddenly become aggressive, destructive. There are steps u can take to help ur dog live without been anxious.

What Causes Dog Anxiety?

Dog anxiety can have several causes which are
Fear,
Separation,
Aging, etc

Fear anxiety can be caused by loud noises, strange people or animals, new or strange environments, specific situations like the vet’s office cos the dog knws he would be injected� , car rides etc

Dogs with separation anxiety are unable to find comfort when they are left alone or separated from their family members. This anxiety often manifests itself in undesirable behaviors, such as urinating and defecating in the house, destroying furniture and furnishings, and barking. When u lock or chain up a dog it can also cause this.

Age-related anxiety affects older dogs and can be associated with cognitive dysfunction syndrome (CDS). In dogs with CDS, memory, learning, perception, and awareness start to decline, similar to the early stages of Alzheimer's disease in humans. This understandably leads to anxiety in senior dogs.

Symptoms of Anxiety

So how can u tell if ur dog has anxiety? Look out for sudden
Aggression,
Urinating or defecating in the house,
Drooling,
Panting,
Destructive behavior,
Depression,
Excessive barking,
Pacing,
Restlessness,
Repetitive or compulsive behaviors

By far the most dangerous symptom of dog anxiety is aggression. This aggression can be targeted directly or indirectly, depending on the situation. Direct aggression occurs when a dog acts aggressively toward people or other animals.

Indirect aggression can be equally dangerous, and often happens when a person comes bween the dog and the source of the dog’s aggression, such as another dog. Even if a dog is prevented from harming others, aggressive behaviors such as growling or barking can lead to dangerous situations for humans and dogs.

Urinating and defecating in the house is a common symptom of separation anxiety. Anxious dogs often work themselves up to the point that they pee or poop in the house, even if they are housebroken. This is frustrating for owners and can cause damage to property, not to mention the unpleasantness of the cleanup.

Destructive behavior is also common with separation anxiety. The damage is usually located around entry and exit points, like doorways and windows, but dogs in a state of heightened anxiety are also at risk of harming themselves.

Attempts to break out of dog crates or cage, windows, and even doors can result in painful injuries and expensive vet treatments.

Treating Dog Anxiety

The best way to treat anxiety is to knw the cause and talk with a vet. They can help you identify the type of anxiety ur dog suffers from and the possible causes and triggers hats if u cant tell.

Vets can also rule out any other medical conditions that could be causing ur dog’s symptoms of anxiety.

Since anxiety is often caused by a variety of factors, the best way to treat it is usually through a combination of training, preventative strategies, and in some cases, medications.

U can train ur dog to get used to the things that makes him anxious and also desensitize him. U should slowly introduce the dog to the source of anxiety, preferably in small doses and at a decreased intensity. Repeated exposure and rewarding positive behavior can go a long way toward managing anxiety.

Anxiety Medications for Dogs:

Some cases of anxiety are so severe that ur vet may recommend medications or natural therapies. antidepressants are occasionally prescribed for dogs with anxiety. anxiety-producing events like thunderstorms, fireworks, or car rides, ur vet might can also provide some medication like an antidepressant to help ur dog cope with the stress.

Preventing Dog Anxiety

It is hard to predict if a dog will develop anxiety, but there are ways to help a new dog or puppy avoid anxiety-related problems.

One of the best things u can do is learn to read dog body language. Knowing when ur dog is uncomfortable or scared can help u avoid negative experiences or use them as a positive training moment.

Body language can also tell u when a dog is getting anxious, which is useful if ur dog has a history of aggression-related anxiety.

Proper socialization can prevent the development of anxiety. Introducing ur dog to new people, dogs, animals, places, sounds and experiences can help them avoid an exaggerated response down the road.

Obedience training is an essential tool for preventing and managing anxiety. It lays the foundation of a healthy relationship and establishes trust. A well-trained dog is easier to socialize than a dog without training.

Exercise and Nutrition

Regular exercise and stimulation are crucial for a dog’s development, physical, and mental well-being. A stimulated dog is less likely to pick up destructive behaviors, and good nutrition is equally important for ur dog's health. Make sure u allow ur dog play everyday.

If ur dog has been diagnosed with anxiety, you can also try to avoid or prevent situations that trigger ur dog’s anxiety.

If the source of the anxiety cannot be avoided, preventative measures like leashes, body harnesses, and, in some cases, basket muzzles can prevent dangerous situations. Once u knw ur dog's triggers, u can prepare for these situations ahead of time.

Spaying and Neutering Your Puppy or Adult Dog: Questions and

What is the difference between spay and neuter and y do people do it?

Spaying. spaying or ovariohysterectomy, is a vet surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia by removing the ovaries and uterus of a female dog

While Neutering or castration, is the surgical removal of a male dog’s testes. Also performed under general anesthesia. A Neutered dog can still av an erection while a spayed female wont come on heat again.

Why do people do it?
Some people find it irritating seen blood discharge from their dogs. Some dont have the time to take care of pregnant dogs and their puppies. Some do not have the technical ability or finance. And some do it as a result of complications or health issues with the female dog.

If u dont live in a fensed compound and ur female is not spayed in some cases it can bring unwanted males around when shes on heat and they she produce unwanted babies. This is another reason y some spay they females.

Having a litter is expensive and involves a lot of time and energy on your part. The bitch will require veterinary care during pregnancy. Delivery can sometimes be difficult and involve costly surgery or result in the loss of the bitch or puppies. The litter will also require veterinary care and shots after birth. On top of that, finding good homes for puppies can be very difficult. Spaying and neutering is a responsible way to prevent accidental breeding resulting in unwanted puppies. Breeding should be left to breeders who have an organized plan and knowledge about canine genetics, and who are concerned with preserving a breed’s best qualities for future generations.
Reduction of certain health risks. Spaying or neutering can lead to a reduction in certain health risks for both female and male dogs. Unspayed females can develop a painful and life-threatening infection of the uterus called pyometra. Unspayed females are also at a higher risk of mammary tumors than females that have been spayed. Neutering a male dog prevents testicular cancer and reduces the risk of other problems, such as prostate disease. A neutered male dog might also have less desire to roam.
May help with certain behavior issues. In addition to reducing roaming in male dogs, neutering can often, though not always, help reduce or eliminate undesirable behaviors, such as leg-lifting and mounting. Neutering may also decrease aggressive behavior in some dogs. Spayed females are also less likely to roam.
It’s important to note that recent data suggests neutering before puberty may instill a tendency toward shyness and insecure behavior.

What is the difference between spay and neuter and y do people do it?

Spaying. spaying or ovariohysterectomy, is a vet surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia by removing the ovaries and uterus of a female dog

While Neutering or castration, is the surgical removal of a male dog’s testes. Also performed under general anesthesia. A Neutered dog can still av an erection while a spayed female wont come on heat again.

Why do people do it?
Some people find it irritating seen blood discharge from their dogs. Some dont have the time to take care of pregnant dogs and their puppies. Some do not have the technical ability or finance. And some do it as a result of complications or health issues with the female dog.

If u dont live in a fensed compound and ur female is not spayed in some cases it can bring unwanted males around when shes on heat and they she produce unwanted babies. This is another reason y some spay they females.

Having a litter is expensive and involves a lot of time and energy on your part. The bitch will require veterinary care during pregnancy. Delivery can sometimes be difficult and involve costly surgery or result in the loss of the bitch or puppies. The litter will also require veterinary care and shots after birth. On top of that, finding good homes for puppies can be very difficult. Spaying and neutering is a responsible way to prevent accidental breeding resulting in unwanted puppies. Breeding should be left to breeders who have an organized plan and knowledge about canine genetics, and who are concerned with preserving a breed’s best qualities for future generations.
Reduction of certain health risks. Spaying or neutering can lead to a reduction in certain health risks for both female and male dogs. Unspayed females can develop a painful and life-threatening infection of the uterus called pyometra. Unspayed females are also at a higher risk of mammary tumors than females that have been spayed. Neutering a male dog prevents testicular cancer and reduces the risk of other problems, such as prostate disease. A neutered male dog might also have less desire to roam.
May help with certain behavior issues. In addition to reducing roaming in male dogs, neutering can often, though not always, help reduce or eliminate undesirable behaviors, such as leg-lifting and mounting. Neutering may also decrease aggressive behavior in some dogs. Spayed females are also less likely to roam.
It’s important to note that recent data suggests neutering before puberty may instill a tendency toward shyness and insecure behavior.

Overweight and obesity in dogs.
Canine Education health articles.

As a responsible dog owner u should get a weighing scale at home and make sure to check the weight of ur dog regularly. U should endeavour to knw the standard weight of the breed u have so u can tell when its overweight and obese

Owners often incorrectly believe their overweight dogs are at a healthy weight.

The formula for reducing weight in dogs is is to decrease in the calories consumed and an increase in activity.

Obesity is wen dogs who are at least 30% heavier than what their normal weight should be,

Excess weight on dogs worsen their arthritis and slow them down. Have u seen a baby outrun a full grown dog? �. It an have significant financial and medical implications in the event of an emergency or illness as well.

These are some of the health issues that overweight could cause in dogs.

Pancreatitis: Meaning inflammation of the pancreas. this disease often results in decreased energy and appetite, with concurrent vomiting and diarrhea. While pancreatitis can be fairly mild, it can also be much more severe and can be fatal (due to the triggering of a body-wide inflammatory cascade set off by the pancreatic inflammation). We av talked abt this in previous articles. Giving ur dogs too much fat can also cause pancreatitis.

Heat Stroke: because of both the insulating properties of their excess fat and the additional strain such excess weight puts on their joints, overweight and obese dogs are at increased risk of developing this debilitating, expensive, and (often) fatal emergency condition.

Diabetes: This condition typically require life-long management and frequent monitoring at ur vet, but it also carries with it the additional risks of a severe metabolic emergency condition called diabetic ketoacidosis, recurrent urinary tract infections etc

Others: Excessive weight and obesity also predisposes a dog to recurrent skin and urinary tract infections, worsens the pain associated with arthritis and other orthopedic conditions, and increases the likelihood that a dog with a pre-existing respiratory or heart condition will suffer an emergency related to their condition.

How can u tell if ur dog is at his ideal body weight?

U can use a combination of ur dogs weight and individual body condition score (BCS) to determine if ur dog is overweight, underweight, or right. U should look primarily at the waist, ribs, and any fat deposits on the back or near the base of the tail.

Wen u view ur dogs waist from the back his abdomen should tuck up as it approaches the back legs. When viewed from above, there should be a clear delineation between the back half and the front. The waist and the abdomen should not be on same level.

U should be able to feel the ribs easily, without having to press through too thick a layer of fat. If there is excessive fat cover over the ribs, ur dog is overweight.

Ur dogs back should not be perfectly flat, and there shouldn't be a large fat pad along their sides or near the base of their tail.

Weight loss in dogs is typically far easier than losing weight ourselves. This is because we control what they eat. I would give u some tips to help u achieve weight loss in ur dogs.

U av to reduce ur dogs calorie intake and increase his activity level (and his caloric burn).

Treats are typically the single biggest source of excess calories that most overweight dogs consume on a daily basis. U should reduce it and probably reduce the number of times u feed.

Don't feed your pet table scraps

Decrease the quantity of food you are feeding ur dog or, if necessary, change the type of food u are feeding them if they contain too much calories. Feeding a higher protein and lower carbohydrate diet can help with achieving weight loss.

Increase the number of calories ur dog burns each day
Increase ur dogs level of daily exercise - start slow and gradually increase.

u can take them for longer or more frequent walks, or u can throw a ball for them more frequently for them to chase. Just be careful not to do these exercises during the heat of the day on particularly warm or hot days, a such days dogs are at higher risk of developing Heat Stroke. We told u this in previous articles.

U can also take them for swimming which is a great exercise for many dogs, and one that is lower impact on their joints. There are some dogs that do not like water, dont force them.

Pancreatitis: Meaning inflammation of the pancreas. this disease often results in decreased energy and appetite, with concurrent vomiting and diarrhea. While pancreatitis can be fairly mild, it can also be much more severe and can be fatal (due to the triggering of a body-wide inflammatory cascade set off by the pancreatic inflammation). We av talked abt this in previous articles. Giving ur dogs too much fat can also cause pancreatitis.

Heat Stroke: because of both the insulating properties of their excess fat and the additional strain such excess weight puts on their joints, overweight and obese dogs are at increased risk of developing this debilitating, expensive, and (often) fatal emergency condition.

Diabetes: This condition typically require life-long management and frequent monitoring at ur vet, but it also carries with it the additional risks of a severe metabolic emergency condition called diabetic ketoacidosis, recurrent urinary tract infections etc

How to knw when ur dog is in pain.

Sometimes our dogs can be in pain but they cant express it to us and am sure none of us can stand to see our beloved pets in pains. Even when our dogs aren't eaten it affects us emotionally.

Sometimes it can be very difficult to knw whether or not ur dog is in pain. But other times its obvious.

There are signs u can look for that might indicate ur dog is experiencing pain.

Dogs in pain are more likely to bite so be careful. They could loss appetite as well. Breathing heavy, heart rate, and even appearance can all change when ur dog is experiencing pain.

If u have a good idea of ur dog’s “normal" which includes his normal attitude, energy level, gait, appetite, thirst, sleep patterns, and other physical and behavioral patterns then it would help u knw when his probably in pains or sick.

When evaluating ur dog for potential pain, please take great care to not get urself (or anyone helping u) bitten. Dont allow family members and friends go close to him during such times. Even if ur dog would never normally bite anyone, the mere fact that ur evaluating ur dog for pain indicates that this may not be a normal time.

Dogs in pain are more likely to bite. This is true even with their owners and other people they knw. And it happens more when a person touches or moves the painful area. So once u observe the area of pains avoid touching such spots.

Breathing Changes:
Dogs experiencing pain may have a faster and more shallow breathing pattern than normal. They may also pant.

Heart and Pulse Changes:
Dogs in pain will often have an increased heart/pulse rate. The rate often noticeably speeds up when the painful area is touched or moved.
U can learn how to measure ur dogs hearth rate at home. Contact a technician to teach u.

Posture Changes:
Dogs who are in pain may assume a very rigid stance, while others may assume the “prayer position” with their front legs on the ground, their butt up in the air, and a stretch throughout their abdomen. Some dogs in pain will lie around more, while others may experience difficulty laying down.

It all depends on the type, location, and severity of the pain.

Eye Changes:
The eyes can be great indicators of pain in dogs. They change both for eye pain itself and for pain elsewhere in the body. Often pain elsewhere in the body will result in larger (dilated) pupils, while pain in the eye(s) can result in either larger or smaller (constricted) pupils.

If their eyes are in pain, the affected eye(s) may also appear bloodshot.

Food and Water Changes:
Dogs in pain often eat and drink less than normal. When they do eat and drink, if the cause of their pain is their teeth or some other part of the mouth, they may drop food and/or water from their mouth.

Energy Level Changes:
Most dogs in pain will have a general decrease in their activity level. This often shows as a dog who sleeps more. It may also manifest as a dog who simply runs and/or jumps less than normal.

Mobility Changes:
Dogs in pain often move around less. However, depending on what hurts, they may still move around the same amount, but do so differently (i.e. with a limp, or more slowly when going up or down the stairs, etc.)

Pooing Changes:
Dogs who have back pain, for any reason, may have difficulty with the posture needed to defecate. So they may struggle to do that.

Body Contour Changes:
If u observe swellings, be they on ur dog’s legs, body, or face, could be an indication of a painful condition, such as infection, inflammation or others.

It’s important to speak with or see ur vet any time ur dog is in pain, or if u think they may be.

For dogs suffering from arthritis fish oil which has anti inflammatory properties can help.
