Problem Pets.
In the UK, it has been said once or twice, that we are a country of animal lovers yet there are outstanding instances of unbelievable cruelty that can occasionally disrupt this well known and taken to heart notion. One thing in life that is for sure, is the ever potential opportunity to make a stand and readdress the problem.
Fantastic organisations and individual animal loving human heroes have most definitely made an impact on the welfare of our wildlife and pets alike. If it were not for the actions of the country’s animal charities and devoted trusts many animals would be left to suffer the consequences of neglect and cruelty. You do not have to wear a cape to be a superhero and never a truer expression was warranted than in the case of many of these life saving animal saviours.
Contributions to the plight of animals and their help at times of mistreatment or distress, can be seen in multiple formats. There are people who can and do really make a difference. Those who go that extra bit but have such a huge influence on the futures of us all.
Although we in general have an affinity with our pets there are times when that is not enough. You might well have heard of the favourite but frantic pooch who has gnawed at the furniture and ripped the carpet to shreds, or the much loved but moody moggie who has decided to mess about with the family dynamics and who could forget the rebellious rabbit who has made art out of his own disappearing act? In any of these examples a good telling off simply doesn’t make any difference and could make matters worse. When in dire straights and in despair about problem pets or even the more wilder of animals who have found a way into a life or two, all too easily it can feel as if one hardly has any options but at this point a ta da moment could well arise as incomes a rather marvellous remedy as advocated by some excellent animal behaviour specialists who have a thorough understanding of animal psychology.
It is amazing how after only a relatively short time many truly upsetting forms of behaviour exhibited by animals can easily be redirected into a far more acceptable state. Even evidence of the wildest antics of animals, have after introduction to a good animal behaviourist, turned these furry, feather or smoother skinned counterparts into passive and obedient loving pets.
There is a distinct pattern that regularly appears in many disruptive pet situations. In multiple cases negative behaviour of the pet could well be because of unclear commands and an unknowing reinforcement of rewarding bad behaviour. It can be extremely enlightening to take a step back from any difficult animal dilemma because all too quickly frustration of the owner and the pet can compound the situation. In times of problem pets it is advisable to seek out the benefit of talking to a well reputed animal behaviourist as they can often illuminate the disparity and bring a much calmer, happier sense of wellbeing to the lives of both animals and the owners.
Pets can be significant reminders to us about how we think of the link between psychology and behaviour. Inconsistency or a lack of clarity can end up in the most terrible of misunderstandings. The important thing to remember in many problem animal scenarios is that an answer could be closer than you think. Amazing results have been established through a little patience, and if the right relationship can be found between pets and owners, the most treasured of rewards can be gained.
