"I found a pill called Dog and swallowed it completely."

This is a sentence from "The Healing of Dogs".

Julie Barton, the author of "The Healing of Dogs", was once a patient with depression. When she was in the most painful time, God sent her a therapist, and he appeared in the form of a dog named Bunker.

The golden retriever dog Bunker taught Julie how to love and how to be responsible for love.

Humans can always be easily cured by dogs, but dogs, like us, can also suffer from depression.

If we must separate, it is better to commit suicide

This story was told by a netizen. His aunt had a golden retriever for 6 years. In 2013, the daughter-in-law at home got pregnant. The daughter-in-law didn’t like dogs and wanted to give the dog away. The mother-in-law couldn’t resist the daughter-in-law, so she gave the dog to her. I found a home and thought about sending the dog away in a few days.

Although she was reluctant to let go, she had no choice. A few days before she was sent away, the dog rested her head on her lap every day. Auntie found it strange, why did the dog behave like this? Then the aunt would also say some words to the dog. But the day before he was sent away, the golden retriever suddenly rushed out of the door and jumped into the small pond in front of the house. The water in the pond was not deep, but... the dog still drowned.

It has sensed this sad atmosphere and suffered from depression. Dog depression is much more serious than that of people. If a person suffers from depression, he or she can speak out and seek help, but it is really difficult for dogs.

If the owner fails to take good care of the dog's emotions in time, it can easily cause the dog to suffer from depression.

The weird behavior of the dog is not because it is crazy

But you don’t understand its mood

A bulldog named Roxy was left alone at home for long periods of time by her owner who was very busy at work. Don’t walk with it or interact with it. The dog feels at a loss at home and has no choice but to bite things to vent his emotions.

When the owner came home one day, he found that the dog was chewing on the steps at the door of his house. His teeth were broken and he refused to let go.

The owner was so scared that he couldn't stop it even if he lost his temper. He had no idea what was going on with the dog. He just intuitively felt that it was crazy, so he threw it directly to the shelter.

After the professional veterinarian examined the dog, he said it shouldIt's so lonely. The dog was so sad that he couldn't express it, and the owner even got more angry with it. It's strange that the dog's psychology can be normal if this continues.

Fortunately, the dog is getting healthier little by little with the rescuers' company.

Dogs and cats have different personalities. Cats may play by themselves, but dogs don’t. If they don't interact enough with their owners, they can easily develop psychological problems.

People suffering from depression can be cured by dogs. When dogs suffer from depression, who can cure it? I am afraid that only the love of the owner is the best medicine.

　☆ What should I do if my dog ​​suffers from depression?

1. Accompanying the cause of depression in most dogs is loneliness. As long as you spend more time with your dog, increase interaction with each other, let it feel the owner's care, enhance self-confidence, and the dog will slowly recover. Will come out of the haze of depression.

2. Social interaction: Owners can walk their dogs more often, so that their dogs can have more contact with other dogs, humans, and the outdoor environment, increase social activities, and soothe their negative emotions, so that their dogs can maintain an optimistic and healthy attitude. Letting your dog live in a fixed habit will make it feel more secure and reduce the occurrence of depression.

In fact, many dogs with mental problems have some painful experiences, and most of the experiences are caused by human abandonment.

I hope that all of us will not impulsively raise dogs or abandon them at will. This is the best love we can give them.
