VETERINARY PSYCHOLOGY: DOG BEHAVIORAL DISEASES

Abstract

Animal behavior is closely linked to the process of evolution of nervous tissues that move towards the cephalic region, promoting the creation of a central nervous system with greater proximity to the sense organs, providing an increasing increase in sensory and cognitive functionalities. The functional analysis of animal behavior establishes a relationship between a certain action and changes that occur in the surrounding environment or within the individual. Changes in these factors may occur incidents, where the veterinarian must have an understanding of all the factors involved in order to contribute to the solution of this triggered behavioral pathology.
