My 2.5 year old female (spayed) pit bull has had a profound change in personality lately. She has always been the usual pit bull-type, out-going, funny dog. But in the last week or so she has not wanted to lie in anyone’s lap, play with our other dog, or sleep in the bed (she has taken to her crate)- all of which she used to love. Does anyone have suggestions or has anyone had a similar experience?
Thanks!

You absolutely should take her to the vet as soon as possible. Lethargy, depression, and other personality changes can be signs of serious health problems.

Hi,


Canine misbehavior is rooted in instinct and intensifies when a dog is bored, stressed, or both. Early training, mental and physical exercise, and plenty of attention go a long way toward both preventing and treating behavior problems. Some cases require the help of a reputable trainer. Physical correction is never appropriate and nearly always makes things worse.
