Recommendation 3 from ‘The Guardian’

Article Name:‘What vets really think about canine ‘Prozac’’

By: ‘Andrew Knight’

In the article writer is talking about a study by Veterinarian Claire Corridan, secretary of the Companion Animal Behaviour Therapy Association that in Britain 80% of dogs suffer from disorders such as phobias and anxiety. Writer cannot help but express his surprise over the study. Writer also points out that the problem of pets is not unscrupulous vets, but irresponsible breeders who skip the socialisation and preventive healthcare. Also, many owners overlook many important things while bringing up their pets.

Summary:

The though of giving Prozac to my dog is scary. He doesn’t deserve to be on Prozac, when he is my Prozac. This article just points out that how selfishly we keep pets for our own entertainment and convenience, but forget to involve this furry happiness in our own lives. It is important if we have to save our pets from depression and anxiety.
