Anxiousness in dogs is something that I think benefits from a behavior + medicine approach. I can think of more examples but class is starting. I'll try to update this if I remember and if I come across something in class.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16627065628317652042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1963277636652034473.post-82342552806577484572012-02-02T09:27:16.228-08:002012-02-02T09:27:16.228-08:00My guess is that most behavior problems come back ...My guess is that most behavior problems come back to owner issues and not something the vet can fix. either it's poor nutrition triggering the behavior (sweet feed hyper horse, cheap dog food spazzy dog) or it's just that the owner needs training. Cats who pee on things are the only example I can think of where it's actually usually a biological problem that a vet can dx and rx to fix.Funderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358687366401205336noreply@blogger.com
