Owners of long-term pets sometimes encounter these situations. Their beloved cats and cats can’t eat for no reason. Their beloved dogs have to shout twice when they are free all day. No matter how you comfort and caress them, they won’t pay attention to you. This is the manifestation of depression. There are six main causes of depression in pet cats or dogs.
The dog may have been ill before or is now ill, because he has not been well treated during his illness, or in the process of treating the dog, he has left a great shadow in his heart. In this way, even if he gets well, the dog’s heart will not be happy and depressed; There is no doubt about the loyalty of dogs to their owners and their dependence on the surrounding environment. So if the dog’s living environment suddenly changes dramatically, such as being sent to a friend’s home for foster care, or moving to a new house, the dog will be at a loss.
Separation from the owner will also aggravate more psychological trauma. If the owner leaves home without taking them out, they will feel very uneasy and nervous at this time, resulting in depression; When you see that your owner is unhappy, some dogs will also feel unhappy. The owner’s emotional state will directly affect the dog’s mood, which may also lead to the occurrence of dog depression. Therefore, try not to let people with depression take care of dogs; Most people will change their mood because of the good or bad in the same period. For example, when it rains on a cloudy day, many people will be very depressed. Similarly, the mood change of dogs is also affected by the weather; Just like the normal decline of human beings, dogs will die at a certain age. When dogs feel that their life is coming to an end, they will feel depressed. Long-term depression will lead to depression.
So if we want to help dogs cure depression, as owners, we can accompany them more and exercise more. We should know that when we humans are exercising, the endorphins released from our bodies can effectively help humans improve their mood. Dogs and humans are the same. Taking dogs out for a walk and play more can effectively treat depression!
