Chelsea has been acting strange the last few weeks. Sitting under tables, having to stand in front of me or my mom when working or in the kitchen, sleeping less and with one eye open. Even what I see as a couple of panic attacks, one when I woke her to move her on the bed she starting scrambling around, trying to get behind me on the pillow, jumping off and on the bed, hiding under the bed, shaking and such. On a visit to the vet yesterday, she asked about panting(she has always panted a lot), paw licking (she is doing that more than normal, wet yard and allergies), any recent stress. The only thing we can come up with is when the house was broken into she was here and do not know what went on, she could have been scared or even hurt as she probably followed them around and barked a lot.
So far we have decided to give her her benadryl on a regular basis, seems to help with the licking a lot and watch for a few weeks, extra attention seperate from Viv and some social visits (we went to petco, someone dropped something and she jumped, Vivi did not react). Give her some time before meds, and they are rarly home by themselves for long.
So my question is, has anyone else seen this type of post tramatic stress in their dog? What did you do? Thanks for any input
