⚠️ It most certainly is true though that dog owners feel taken by surprise when they finally notice them.
That these issues don’t just appear with a vengeance one Wednesday mornings then means that they’ve developed over a period of time.
⏰ Very often they’ve developed over a very long period of time, and in some cases intensified over a great number of experiences which have accumulated to produce the issue as it presents today.
This is one area in which professional oversight can play a huge role – helping dog owners identify ‘red flags’ early, and adjust the course accordingly.
✅ Underlying emotional issues are a frequent contributor to the worst of these issues.
✅ Genetics definitely contribute to the nature of the issues, the way they affect the dog, the associated behaviours, and even the potential of the dog to come to learn to think, feel and behave differently.
For all of these aspects, there are some very common contributors which are, and/or have been, in the owners control.
If you find value in this video please consider sharing it, and/or commenting on it – a lot of effort goes into producing these resources, and the message has the potential to help more folks should it be shared broadly.
*Not strictly true – there’s always the potential of a neurological issue of some type.
