Dogs Behaving Badly? Learn 6 signs of Issues

There could be many factors in bad dog behavior. Speaking with your dog is the surest way to get to the root cause.

Is your animal behaving badly? Bad behavior by your favorite pet(s) may be a sign of psychological issues such as depression or grieving.

His health was very bad (he was suffering from cancer) and he could hardly move because he was in so much pain.

To complicate matters, his remaining three dogs were out of control. They jumped on everyone, which was terribly embarrassing. They barked and would not quiet down, and they urinated in the house. One dog would go outside — then come back inside to pee! Dutchess was physically launching an attack on the front door anytime someone just walked by, and since the door was largely glass, Dr Joey was afraid she’d break the door and hurt herself in the process!

He couldn’t take them for walks because they would pull in all directions and one dog would have to be dragged along… terribly frustrating and dangerous for all of them.
