Why is My Dog So Annoying?

Why is My Dog So Annoying?

Why is my dog so annoying, is a question I’ve been asking myself a lot lately.Sure, they’re “man’s best friend” and “part of the family.” They’re our “constant companions and our “furbabies.” But sometimes, our dogs are pains in the – well, you know. Why does this happen? And why do they seem to annoy us at the most inopportune times?

Do Dogs Get Bored?

Definitely. According to The Spruce Pets, dogs become bored “from not getting enough exercise, toys, or interaction with you.” Does this sound like Fido? Did you arrive home to a chewed shoe or a pile of his filthy feces on your kitchen floor? Try leaving special toys that Fido only gets to play with when he exhibits this kind of behavior. Or consider confining him to his crate while you’re away from your home for a few hours. If Fido seems bored when you are at home, take him outside for more rigorous play or a brisk walk. Sometimes bored dogs simply need to be worn out.

When They’re Sick

If Fido isn’t feeling well, he will sometimes exhibit these feelings by annoying you. You might find a dog that never chews on improper things – the furniture, shoes, etc. – will do so when he isn’t feeling well. The Bark Post says, “They may even become irritable with family members or other pets in the household.” It’s imperative to keep a close watch on these minor annoyances, especially if they get worse or your dog becomes lethargic. It might be time for a trip to your local veterinarian. Don’t forget that you might be annoying to fellow humans when you’re not feeling your best. Humans whine, complain, and ask for a lot more than they do when feeling well.

Is Fido Annoying You by Refusing to Allow You to Put on
His Leash?

How annoying is that? You’re ready to go out for your morning run, and Fido’s refusing. He appears to be in optimal health, so why is he doing this to you? French Bulldog Owner claims that, “Dogs can get bored of the same walking route. Just like humans, dogs get bored of the same walk day in and day out.” To rectify this situation, simply switch up your route. This gives Fido not only a new path on which to walk or run, but also new things – as well as new people and pets – to see and sniff!
