Pain aggression in dogs – Pet tip 257
Unfortunately the following two scenarios occur from time to time: You’re innocently petting your cat or dog when all of a sudden your pet bites you. The same reaction can happen when you pick up your cat or dog the way you always do, when all of a sudden it bites you. What is going on here? Your pet NEVER bites you, and now that you are trying to show it some love, it bites you. Has your pet gone mad? What might be going on here is pain induced aggression.
It seems so obvious after you bring your pet to a veterinarian to figure out what is going on, but it may be as simple as pain induced aggression. Pain induced aggression means that your pet has exhibited an aggressive behaviour because it is in pain. This is especially common in older pets that may be suffering from arthritis or perhaps one of their internal organs is bruised or diseased.

What can I say to make you understand how wonderful my dog was? I can describe his coloring, and how I chose him at 6 weeks of age because of the brown spot on his head. I can tell you how smart he was, and how he used to go into my Dad's pocket to get himself a biscuit. I can let you know how it felt to be rewarded with his kisses, but you'll never know it for yourself. All I really want to convey is that I miss my best friend more than I can put into words!
