Understanding OCD & Displacement Behaviours in Dogs

Description

Displacement behaviour is when an animal offers a different behaviour out of context- usually due to a stressful situation. This can be scratching, chewing feet, spinning, chasing shadows, digging, humping etc. When it starts to appear without a stressor added this is similar to OCD in humans.

Its rare that I see OCD to be honest but it's fixable! It's not a born with condition and doesn't need medications to stop it- just training!
