How to Tell if Your Dog Is Lonely: 4 Dangerous Signs
30.08.2023 06:50
A dog is an animal that does not tolerate loneliness well.
Four-legged friends need frequent interaction with their owner and other people.
Without active games and regular walks, it will be very difficult for your pet.
Unfortunately, not all dog owners have the opportunity to devote a lot of attention and time to their pets.
Some people are busy, which can make the dogs they raise feel lonely.
Signs Your Dog Is Feeling Lonely
Periodically refuses to eat
Refusal to eat is a very dangerous sign. The dog may have health problems.
But it is possible that the pet is sad because of loneliness, which is why its appetite disappears.
Barks often
Dogs may start making loud noises when no one is around.
If neighbors often complain about barking, then the owner leaves his pet in a locked apartment too often.
Makes a mess
A bored dog often turns over things in the apartment.
The thing is that the pet needs to direct its energy somewhere. When in a small apartment, the animal has only one option - to make a mess by throwing things off, gnawing and tearing.
Shows aggression
Has the dog started to "take off" on the owner? Have bites become a frequent occurrence?
Perhaps the lonely four-legged friend is trying to attract attention in such a radical way.
How to help your pet
You should try to spend as much time with the dog as possible. If the owner cannot cope alone, he should involve all members of his family in raising the dog.
The dog needs to be walked more often and for longer periods. Allow your pet to run and play for a long time.
When going to work, a person should leave several things in the rooms that he has not taken off recently. Then the dog will smell the owner, and this is a clear plus.
