DOG TRAINING TIPS & ARTICLES
It may be stating the obvious, but it's a fact that the environment you
provide for your dog, your demeanor toward him and in general, how you treat
him, has a direct and powerful bearing on his disposition. Beyond that, most
dog behavior... both usual and unusual... is rooted in instinct.
The hierarchy of the pack with its dominant male and female is recreated
every day in millions of twenty-first century homes where there is a mother
and/or a father who supervise the lives of their subordinate children, some of
whom have four legs. Other than territorial aggression, which is the
instinctual response of a deeply social animal to defend its pack, aggression
problems in dogs usually stem from a breakdown in the hierarchy.
A dog may challenge the authority of an unassertive owner. And if that
owner doesn't re-assert his dominance and curb the behavior, the dog may feel
at liberty to be more and more aggressive with other people as well as other
dogs.
Neurotic behavior is often a response to stress, and boredom is stress
for a dog. Repetitive behaviors that become trance-like and automatic, like
spinning and running in circles, sometimes begin as an effort to find
stimulation in what the dog experiences as a vacuum. Chewing and self
mutilation can begin the same way. The desire to feel something, even pain, is
better than nothing.
Unusual, bizarre, or difficult behavior is usually a temporary reaction
to physical or mental stress. Dogs have been known to pace, bark at lights for
hours on end, stare at the wall, stare at the moon, pull out their hair, and
chase shadows. Ignore the obvious. It's not about the wall, the lights or the
moon. Look for a source of disruption, change, or situational impact in your
dog's life. Look for it, not from your point of view but from your dog's. Something is out of balance for him and this is what has triggered the behavior. If you're lucky it will be something you can alter or at least modify. Do whatever you can to restore his equilibrium and the obsessive behavior should reduce and finally stop.
Got A Bad Behaved Dog?
Truly serious behavioral problems are rare. If you ever encounter an aberrant behavior, something which has a detrimental effect on your dog's life as well as your own, your veterinarian or an animal psychologist can teach you the behavior modification techniques you will need to help your dog overcome it. Also there are many wonderful books and videos available which cover the whole spectrum of canine behavior and will help you build a relationship with your dog which enhances both your lives.
