the consequences of confinements and curfews on pets – Insurance for Pets

The crowds, the noises of the city, and the presence of other animals are all phenomena to which the dogs have been habituated with confinements and curfews. Being born at this time, in a colder world, can have consequences for a dog. « There are a lot less people outside, less movement, people are afraid to meet two dogs, because we keep our distance, and that creates problems for the dog« , explains Céline Forêt, dog trainer. A less socialized puppy is a more fearful and even aggressive future dog, according to her.

Weight gain is also a consequence of confinement in dogs. « He took 800 grams in a while, he asked for more to eat, since he went out less, he had a little more treats, and he was also spending less.« , testifies a woman about her dog. Masters too present during confinement, and less when the routine resumes; the pill goes badly in dogs who can develop a »hyperattachement« according to Yannick Perennes, veterinarian, then an anxiety of separation.
