An innovative approach to monitor dog behavioral disorders
In dogs, diets are often used as a support to drug therapy to modulate behavioral disorders related to chronic anxiety and stress caused by strenuous, restless activity. However, traditional methods of monitoring behavioral changes in dogs remotely are complicated and not completely reliable. In this clinical evaluation a new and simple monitoring system was used to evaluate the efficacy of a specific diet (free of pharmacological residues such as oxytetracycline, an antibiotic widely and legally used in intensive farming) enriched with specific pools of medicinal plants with antitoxic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immunomodulating properties in modulating the intense obsessive-compulsive activity of 24 dogs of different ages and breeds.
