Behavior issues are something most pet owners face at one time or another. Sadly, they can create such frustration that it breaks the bond between pet and person. At Danza Del Sol Veterinary Medical Center, our veterinarians and technicians are experienced and educated about behavior problems. They can provide help through training suggestions, environmental changes at home, and potentially prescribe medications to help calm your pet and recommend other behavioral modification training.
Some typical behavior issues that we can help you with include:
- Separation anxiety
- Noise aversion
- Inappropriate elimination/litterbox issues
- Excessive barking
- Obsessive licking/lick granulomas
- Chewing
- Pica/Coprophagia
- Aggression/Irritability
- Feather plucking in birds
It’s always important to first rule out a medical or physical cause for the behavior, especially if it is a sudden change. Pets can’t tell you when something is wrong, so the behavior could be the symptom of a serious health problem. If you notice your pet acting abnormally, you should schedule an appointment with us as soon as possible.
