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.

There are many ways that we could describe Buffy but what comes to mind is the unique personality she had and how, in a moment's notice, she could always make you laugh or smile. She was always a part of the family and will always be remembered. Saying goodbye to her wasn't the easiest things to do but we didn't want her to suffer and wanted her to let her go with grace. She is in good hands now and we know she will still be around us and she knows that each person who's lives she touched is thinking about her right now and knows that one day, we will all be together again.
