Dogs should not be independent for too long
In the past, dogs They are social animals, so dogs are more prone to a sense of security than those that are independent for a long time. Therefore, if dogs are allowed to be independent for too long, it will have a certain impact on their emotions. Short-term independence may not make the dog feel isolated, but if for some reason you do not always accompany the dog and often leave it alone at home, it may cause the dog to be depressed.
Nowadays, in order to relieve stress, most people will choose to raise a dog to relieve stress. However, due to work reasons, they do not have much time to do so. To keep the dogs company, but the dogs will feel lonely inside without the attention and care of their owners for a long time. Some owners are too tired to work, and basically fall asleep after going home to get drunk, and rarely fall asleep. Sometimes playing with your dog makes your dog feel very sad. Over time, it may cause the dog to be unwilling to communicate with others, and severe cases may cause depression. Moreover, some British veterinarians have discovered that many pets need to take anti-depressant drugs due to "breakup anxiety", otherwise they are prone to becoming irritable and biting.
Knight, professor of animal welfare and ethics at the University of Winchester, said: "The veterinary community has discovered that the behavioral problems of cats, dogs, and even birds are becoming increasingly serious. They occasionally become aggressive, suddenly become very fearful, and are uncontrolled when they go out." He pointed out that this series of problems can be largely attributed to the "lack of socialization and lack of training" of the animals when they are young. .
There are no legal anti-depressant drugs for dogs in the UK, so in some cases veterinarians can only prescribe human drugs to animals. A member of the British Animal Society said that about 80% of animals in the UK suffer from emotional disorders.
Although spending time with dogs
Dogs who have lived alone for too long are often a little nervous, because they rarely have the opportunity to fight with others, so if they are They will feel an inexplicable sense of tension when they suddenly fight with strangers, and they usually have little communication with their masters, so it is difficult for them to be 100% sure of their masters. If a stranger wants to show kindness to them, it is likely to cause the dog to feel fearful, because being too nervous may lead to biting, running around, hiding in corners and refusing to see people.
Being independent for too long will not only have an impact on the dog's spirit, but it will also be useless for their body. A bad mood will have a great impact on a dog's appetite. Some dogs become depressed due to sadness, and the amount of food they eat also decreases sharply. Some even suffer from loss of appetite. When this happens, Dogs in this state experience physical weakness day by day, and their physical fitness will become worse and worse, and may eventually die from not eating or drinking.
For some owners, they may be really busy with work and have no time to take care of their dogs. However, for the sake of the healthy design of their dogs, they should still consider it. Give your dog away or don't keep a dog at all. Of course, if you really like dogs, then you should still take some time to accompany your dog no matter what.
