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.

Coconut was the most loving dog, she was a companion and a friend to my disabled husband. She was very unique in everything she did, for instance, she would eat only from my husband's dish and if he was eating it, she wanted it. She was such a love and just as friendly. She was called the artic fox by a neighbor as her ears were so soft. We miss her dearly, and hope she rests in peace. She was a very sick girl, and we know she is in a better place. Bye best girlfriend. We love and miss you!!
