There is no mystical reason for a pet's habit of howling at the moon.
Everything can be explained. According to experts, the animal may have at least 5 reasons for this. Once you know about them, the problem can be solved without long conversations and threats of punishment.
A dog may start howling as soon as it is left alone during the day or as soon as everyone in the house goes to bed. Here is why this happens.
Lack of entertainment
Dogs also get bored because they have nothing to do. If the pet simply has nowhere to throw out excess strength and energy, it can get into mischief by starting to howl.
Anxiety
Dogs are said to feel anxious when they see the moon or when they are left alone. This problem can only be solved by teaching your pet independence. This requires training with mandatory rewards.
Instinct and communication
Howling is the same way a pet communicates with its relatives as barking. Experts are not unanimous in this opinion, but it is believed that it is impossible to eradicate this habit.
Errors
Mistakes can be made during training. For example, when a dog starts barking and howling in the house, in order to calm it down, the owner starts petting or otherwise pleasing the pet. The animal perceives these actions as a reward, and soon everything can repeat itself.
Health
Many diseases are latent, and in this case it would not hurt to visit a veterinarian. Even if the pet is healthy, a specialist can help cope with the problem by giving practical advice.
