Where it comes from and how you can support your four-legged friend

New Year’s Eve firecrackers and sirens, long car rides,  Thunderstorm,  large crowds  or vet visits –  Restlessness can be  can be triggered by very different factors.  Restless  Dogs react when they cannot handle a certain situation.

Physical  Causes can be, for example, hunger or thirst, heat or cold, lack of sleep or pain. But social origins  such as frequent loneliness, isolation or an aggressive environment can also lead to  nervousness  as well as noise, hectic pace, unknown people, threats and sensory overload.  For many dogs, behavioral problems can also be linked to bad experiences from the past, so Help becomes necessary.

How does restless behavior manifest itself? 

Every dog ​​reacts to uncomfortable situations  different. The classics  are ears laid back, shallow breathing and tight muscles.  Red eyes, blue tongue and white saliva (“tricolor”) are also phenomena that  can occur.  Dogs are  in addition  mostly  restless, hyperactive and particularly jumpy. Increased barking or howling, diarrhea or displacement activities also occur frequently.  Due to the tension  the body is put into a kind of “alert state” in order to be able to react quickly with fight or flight.  In the worst case, restless  dogs  so  They may also become aggressive towards themselves and their surroundings or – for example, while out for a walk – break free and run away.

LERN UNS MAL SO RICHTIG KENNEN.

Alpha – was? Klar, der Name mag nach einem epischen Boss-Level klingen, aber lass Dich davon nicht auf eine falsche Fährte locken. Die geheime (altgriechische) Formel dahinter: Alpha: das Erste, Beste, Größte und Zoo: Tier, Lebewesen. Kurzum: Für uns stehen Vierbeiner an erster Stelle. Und wäre es nicht so kitschig, würden wir uns als Zentrale für tierische Lebensfreude bezeichnen (psst, das bleibt jetzt aber wirklich unter uns!).
