What’s your coping mechanism? How do you deal with stress, fear, or anxiety? Some people chew their pen covers, some tap their feet on the ground, some scribble and make doodles on paper sheets, and others have stress balls that they squeeze. You can already tell that all these have to do with people, not dogs. But which of these behaviors would you consider odd?

Reactivity in dogs is one of the major issues dog owners face. This reactivity can rear its head in different ways, such as reactivity towards other dogs. This reactive behavior can also cause distress to everyone around your dog. Your dog may bark, growl, or lunge; in some cases, your dog may even try to bite.

Dogs come in different shapes, sizes, builds, characters, breeds, and temperaments. Our furry friends can be sweet and loving with you and act the exact opposite when meeting others. Your dog can snarl, jump, pull its leash, bark, and even bite. This dangerous behavior can be a cause for concern for most dog owners.
