What happens if I ignore my dog for a long time?
Ignoring a dog long-term harms its physical and mental health because dogs are social and need interaction. Neglect can cause loneliness, anxiety and depression, leading to barking, chewing and other destructive behavior, plus eating and sleep problems. Give plenty of attention and companionship, or board it with a trusted pet hotel if you cannot care for it.
