The odd behavior of pets has an explanation. It is necessary to pay attention to these features in time so that they do not develop into a habit.

As for the habit of chewing on the leash, it also has its own reasons that need to be dealt with.

Dog Habits

We can say that this is communication between the dog and the owner. In this way, the dog signals that he is either missing something or is not satisfied with something.

1. First of all, you need to pay attention to the duration and number of walks.

Walking your dog should not be seen as a need to go to the toilet.

For animals, it is contact with the surrounding world and their relatives. They receive a lot of information from smells alone.

Therefore, a walk that is too short can cause a dog to behave in a variety of ways, including looking for an opportunity to release energy.

2. Also pay attention to the character and emotionality of your pet.

Perhaps the dog is bored and that is why he reacts so emotionally, wanting to release excess energy.

It will take a few minutes to calm the dog down, and as a preventative measure, you need to buy your pet a toy.

Conclusion

When walking, be sure to give your dog the opportunity to sniff, examine, and run around.

If you are unable to correct your pet's behavior on your own, contact a specialist who will help you correct the animal's behavior in a timely manner.
