Are you a dog helicopter parent? How would you know if you were one, and what does it mean anyway? We’ll explain all of this, so you can understand some of the common signs to see if you can relate to them.
Most dogs like to be petted, and appreciate the show of affection from their owners. A dog who has a relaxed pose, open mouth, and soft eyes is likely open to a good petting session. Dogs are best petted when it’s on their terms; it isn’t a good idea to pet a dog who appears agitated, stressed, angry or who is sleeping!
Most lumps and bumps on a dog are harmless, but occasionally they can be malignant (cancerous). Older dogs have a higher chance of developing cancerous lumps than younger ones, but that doesn’t mean that younger dogs aren’t at risk too.
Read on to find out if you should contact your local vet about a lump on your dog, and what may be causing it.
It’s important to understand your dog’s body language so that you can reduce the things that scare or worry them, and increase the things that make them happy. Understanding your dog’s signals and behaviours will mean that you can react quickly if they are stressed or angry to remove them from the situation or to calm them down.
