Dogs suffering from chronic pain often experience frustration and anxiety because they often have difficulty in accessing their daily needs (Dermirtas et al. 2023).

Chronic pain is known to negatively affect the mood and reduce the capacity for pleasure in individuals by inducing maladaptive cognition such as pain catastrophizing
and negative emotions. Bidirectional relation­ships between depression and chronic pain are well documented in humans.

To learn more about how you can adapt your dog's home environment to better able them to access the resources they require, head over to our Home Adaptations page on our website:

"I think 10 meters is far enough away" ❌
Your dog is the one who determines the distance, we can't✅
You may have found the perfect area because triggers are available... yet your dog is still struggling.
You are too close.

Reactivity is a tricky beast and we really need to respect the emotional turmoil bubbling underneath...and those emotions simply won't change if you are too close when you begin working with them.
There is a time to challenge distance, ...but again, your dog will let you know when they are ready. There are videos in the comments which can hep if you are new to a reactive dog (as there can be a lot to learn).
You CAN make a big difference with reactivity. ✅

The Connection Between a Dog’s Health and Behaviour

For years, we've often viewed our dog’s medical and behavioural issues as separate matters. If our dogs showed signs of physical distress, such as lethargy, altered eating habits, or unexplained discomfort, we would rush them to the vet. On the other hand, when faced with behavioural problems like excessive barking, destructive tendencies, or sudden aggression, we often attribute these to training issues. However, a growing body of research has shed light on the undeniable connection between a dog's health and their behaviour. It is now widely accepted that a dog’s behaviour can be totally or partially caused by underlying health conditions.

If your dog presents with a new or existing behavioural problem, we recommend arranging a veterinary health check as soon as possible.

Despite advancements in our understanding of canine behaviour and the continuous efforts of dog trainers and behaviourists worldwide, the dominance myth continues to permeate the dog training industry. Thanks to social media and tv personalities, dominance is regularly asserted to be the driving for...

Obviously, the whole purpose of the SkeptVet is to combat misinformation and to promote evidence-based pet health. I first used the term Age of Endarkenment in a post for the much more influential Science-Based Medicine blog. Then, I was focused on the relatively narrow issue of the AVMA being unwil...
