Effect of stress on dogs


Stress is one of the main causes of many human diseases. But is man? It turns out that animals are suffering from the negative impact of stress on the body no less people. This causes leading to the development of stress in pets, especially dogs similar to the causes of stress in humans.

One of the common causes of stress in dogs is the lack of communication with people like dogs. Many employers mistakenly believe that if the dog stayed outside for quite a long time, her health did not threaten, because she "walked". However, it is not. The dog must "walk" not one, but in good company four-legged friends, but in this case, it will have the opportunity to behave as it is prescribed by nature, and thus avoid the development of stress.

Stress caused by lack of communication can be two basic types. In the first case, a dog, usually adults, just bored with the result that she develops giperdinamiya, it becomes too mobile, begins to run circles and catch its own tail.

In the second case, the stress arises as a consequence of lack of communication in the puppy age. If the puppy is never in my life was not confronted with older dogs, then, upon becoming an adult, but not acquired the necessary skills to communicate with peers, he literally falls into a panic from any contact with the tribe.

In addition to the lack of communication to the development of stress in dogs is wrong behavior hosts connected with the fact that they load your pet is too big responsibility. In this case, is once again reminded that dogs are very similar to humans. And so, just like a man under stress in the event that its load beyond the strength of his work, the dog is experiencing stress, when it was forced to be a leader if the leader is by its nature can not be.

Kuzya any dog pack there is only one leader. The majority of the dogs - it is ordinary members of the pack. Owners also often want to just their pet became the winner of various exhibitions, that is, become a leader. But he can not. It can not, even if the shape of its tail and meets all standards but the psyche, the psyche does not match.

In dogs suffering from unbearable to them responsibility, often develop phobias. U.S. scientists have proved that the most common dog phobia, phobia of storms, strikes, usually purebred dogs, played exhibitions. As purebred dogs, living in a fun, suffer from phobias are many times less.

The result of the effects of stress on the dog's body is the same as on the human body: reduction of immunity, in violation of the internal organs, until the development of malignant tumors.
