¿Por qué lloran los perros? - 6 CAUSAS principales

Your dog cries frequently and you don't know why. Many owners find it disconcerting that their dogs cry for no apparent reason. However, we must be clear that they always do it for a reason. It is a way of communicating with us and telling us that they are sick, scared or need our attention so that you learn to understand your dog. In this video by an animal expert, we will explain why dogs cry. Don't miss it. Dogs cry to get attention. Many people think that their dogs cry on a whim and therefore decide to ignore or punish them. These are completely wrong actions. Sounds such as crying, howling or barking are part of the language that dogs use to communicate and we should not ignore them. We must give them the attention they need and above all, learn to understand what is happening to them. That said, dogs can cry for various reasons, one of them being to get our attention because they need us. Now. What exactly do they need? We will find out below. Why do puppies cry? It is completely normal for a puppy to cry when arriving at its new home at night or when it is alone. Why? Very simple. Because it is experiencing a feeling of loneliness and fear in a new and unfamiliar situation. Up until this point, the puppy had lived with its mother and siblings and needs some time to adapt to its new family. What do we do in these cases? Take care of them to facilitate their adaptation. Provide them with security and confidence. Little by little, the puppy will feel better and the crying will disappear. Why do adult dogs cry? When an adult dog cries, it usually indicates fear, need, pain or excitement. Let's look at each cause. A dog can be frightened due to fear for different reasons, such as noises, but it can also cry in a situation of anxiety, such as when it is left alone at home. In the latter case, it can even cry all day long. Therefore, we recommend going to an ethologist or veterinarian specializing in canine behavior to establish appropriate guidelines for working. Out of necessity in these cases, the dog wants to get our attention because it has run out of food, water or needs to go out to relieve itself. This type of crying is easily recognizable because as soon as we satisfy its need, the dog stops crying. Of course, if, for example, we notice that it urinates more than usual or has difficulty urinating or defecating, we should go to the vet to check its health status due to pain. A sick dog or one in pain is likely to cry, especially when touching the affected area or when making a movement. We can examine the animal to confirm the suspicion, carefully, feeling its body, and then go to the vet due to excitement. I note that crying is negative since dogs can also cry when they are very excited or excited. A clear example of this is when we get home. Many dogs get nervous when their owners return. They run to greet them and once the greeting is over, they the crying also stops and in elderly dogs in addition to the causes we have explained, a dog that gets older will undergo a series of changes produced by the mental and physical aging processes that can cause it to cry. When your dog cries at night, it could indicate that their sleep patterns are changing with them spending more time sleeping during the day. Osteoarthritis and the pain that come with it can also cause whining and crying. In addition, disorientation and discomfort may occur requiring the intervention of your veterinarian. We hope that you can now better understand your dog and learn to identify what they are trying to tell you when they cry. If you suspect that it may be due to pain, discomfort or health problems, remember to see your veterinarian as soon as possible.
