Pet owners, please note that dogs often do these poses, which may be due to physical problems.
Dogs cannot moan because of pain like us humans. On the contrary, they act very normally in most cases, just like nothing has happened. However, as owners, they cannot just enjoy the joy of petting dogs. They must also observe them carefully during the daily process so that they can find problems as soon as possible. Let’s take a look at the movements that dogs do frequently when they are uncomfortable.
1. It is hard to sit and stand
Although the dog is active by nature, if the dog walks around the room and lie down for a while, then runs there and lie down, even if he sits, he will keep changing his posture. Anyway, it is very inconsistent with his usual behavior, and the dog may be suffering from chronic muscle pain. They do all to relieve the pain in their bodies.
2. Praying posture
The front legs are stretched forward and the butt is sticking out. Some people will find this kind of prayer-like posture that is funny, but not only the possibility of acting coquettishly or stretching to the owner, but also many times it is caused by pancreatitis and abdominal pain, which they try to make them feel more comfortable through this action.
3. Frequently lick a certain place
When the dog starts to lick or bite the hair in the same place frequently, the owner should check the licking part in time, because there are likely wounds here, or parasites such as fleas, ticks, etc. I saw that the dog often licked his paws, and it might be that his fleshy palm had stuck in the foreign object.
4. The body leans forward, trembles
Pain in the hind limbs and hip joints will cause the dog to lean forward, and its weight will be concentrated on the forelimbs, causing the body to lean forward, and the forelimbs will tremble, and will also cause the neck to grow bigger and bigger, because the dog with pain in the hind feet will use the power of the neck and forelimbs to help get up, gradually forming a thick neck.
