A dog's good mood may be spoiled, but not because the owner punishes it or leaves it to be bored alone in the apartment until yesterday, while he himself goes to work.
There are more significant reasons that you need to know and remember.
Let's find out why your pet suddenly stops being interested in games, food, and even refuses to go for a walk.
All these are signs of a bad mood or, as people say, depression.
Doggy mood
First, you need to remember that the pet forms an emotional connection with the owner. They sense the person's mood, their emotions.
So if the owner is sad, then the faithful four-legged friend is unlikely to have fun during this difficult time for the owner.
Secondly, a neighbor's pet or a pet cohabitant can spoil the dog's mood. For example, a cat or a cat often show aggression when the dog just wants to get to know them better.
Third, emotions can be related to hormones.
If this is a growing dog, a future sexually mature individual, then the hormonal background can affect the usual behavior.
Similar situations occur in connection with seasonal changes, and it is also said that dogs react to changes in pressure, magnetic storms and weather phenomena in general.
Fourth, the daily routine.
The mood can be spoiled if the dog has walked outside for less time than it should have, if it was forgotten to be fed or fed the wrong thing, and in general if the owner is inattentive to the needs of the pet.
