Why Socialization Is Very Important For Pet Dogs

vets Salisbury, NC

Dogs are naturally friendly and playful. They do not have difficulty in interacting with other members of the pack including their pet owners whom they grew up with. Usually, they are more comfortable with things that they encounter on a day to day basis. When they are exposed to people and other pets at a young age, they develop a more friendly attitude as they grow older and they can easily overcome the fear of other dogs and humans.

In contrast, dogs that grew up without human interaction can be hard to please and won’t know how to behave when they encounter new or unfamiliar faces, humans and pets alike.  This can cause them to become defensive and would cause persistent barking, anxiety, or hostility. Hence, their pet owners would opt to retrain and secure them without knowing that it would aggravate the situation instead of mitigating it.

It is always wise to refer to your vets Salisbury, NC for any changes in their behavior.
