Dog Behavior

Dogs are unable to talk just like we do, but we can still understand their feelings by observing their behavior and body language. It is compulsory that an owner is aware of his dog's body language, as it will not only strengthen their bond, but will also prevent tragic results where the owner is forced to abandon his dog due to behavior problems. In this category, there are questions relating to the different body languages of dogs, their behavior, etc.

What to watch for when dog gets bitten by other dog?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If your dog gets bitten by another dog, it's important to take immediate action to ensure the safety and well-being of your pet. Here's what to watch for and steps to take:

  1. Assess the Severity of the Bite:

Determine the extent of the injury. Is it a minor scratch, a puncture wound, or a more serious injury? This will help you decide the appropriate course of action.

  1. Ensure Safety:

Separate the dogs to prevent further aggression or attacks. Make sure both dogs are safe and secure.

  1. Examine the Wound:

Carefully examine the bite wound. Look for bleeding, swelling, redness, or signs of infection.

  1. Clean the Wound:

If the wound is bleeding, apply gentle pressure with a clean cloth to stop the bleeding.

Clean the wound with mild, warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly to reduce the risk of infection.

  1. Contact a Veterinarian:

Even if the wound appears minor, it's advisable to contact your veterinarian for guidance. They can assess the wound's severity, recommend treatment, and provide advice on preventing infection.

  1. Watch for Signs of Infection:

After the initial treatment, monitor your dog closely for signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, discharge, increased pain, or behavioral changes. If you notice any of these symptoms, contact your vet immediately.

  1. Keep the Dog Calm and Restrained:

Keep your dog calm and restrict their activity to prevent further injury or aggravation of the wound.

  1. Update Vaccinations:

Ensure that your dog's vaccinations are up-to-date, especially if the biting dog's vaccination status is unknown.

  1. Report the Incident:

If the bite occurred in a public place, consider reporting it to local animal control or authorities, as there may be legal requirements regarding dog bites.

  1. Behavior Assessment:

If your dog was bitten by another dog, it may be helpful to assess their behavior and consider professional training or behavior modification if necessary.

  1. Prevent Future Incidents:

Take steps to prevent future altercations with other dogs. This may include avoiding situations where aggression is likely, using a leash and proper control, and training your dog in socialization and obedience.

Do dogs eat puppies feces?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, dogs do indeed eat puppy feces. They eat small amounts when grooming or licking the anus to help stimulate defecation in puppies. They may eat larger amounts of feces to clean up after the puppies. That has a role in the wild of helping to hide from predators. The puppy waste may draw predators, and eating it gets rid of it.

How much does it cost to fly 2 dogs?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You should check with the airlines. I travel with my small dog in coach. You have to have a veterinarian examine the dog and give you a health certificate. Dog must be up on all shots. This certificate must be shown upon you checking in and getting your boarding pass. You, at this time purchase a ticket for your pet. American Airlines charges 100.00 each way. It cost the same for large dogs flying with cargo. Each airlines has it's own pet policy. Check with the one that you are ticketed with.

Why does a dog have a troublesome itch on either side of her lower back even though her coat is clean and she has no fleas?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If she is also not showing any signs of furloss than it is probably something minor like allergies or dry skin. the winter is a common time for dogs to get dry skin and it easily treated with oatmeal shampoo or omega 3 capsules. if that doesnt improve it try some otc benadryl for allergies.

you can get either at a petstore or online at 1800petmeds.com
