My dog has a cataract on one of her eyes. She never used to bark alot, but now she does. She barks alot when someone enters the house, even at people who live here that she is used to. Is this because she can't see who she is barking at very well or what? What should i do?
Answers:
She is not seeing as well any more and is probably just trying to defend her territory by barking at people, even the ones she lives with until she realizes who they actually are or she figures they are of no threat. They can do cat surgery but is expensive. Tell everyone she comes in contact with to talk to her and say her name upon meeting dog and the owner should give praise and say that everythng is ok when she quiets down.
Maybe if she was a beaten pet something jumpstarted her mind to remember how she was beat and she will get nervous and bark.
Exactly. She's being defensive "just in case". You can get her into surgery to remove the cataract. Depending on her age, weigh the pros and cons.
I think that you answered your own question she can't see but does hear someone /something around her %26 like A person with thsame problem is asking whos there?
I'd have avet ckeck her their maybe treatments like people get that can be used on her
