It depends on what we're considering the issue to be. But a lot of times, I would say, if you feel like you're noticing an issue with your pet or they're developing a bad habit, then the best thing to do is to work right away to correct that bad habit.

You know, I would say yes and no. I think any dog can develop any behavioral issue. Do I think that maybe some breeds are more prone to it, in the sense of, are all pit bulls bad? No, not all pit bulls are bad. Are all Dobermans and rottweilers bad? No, they're not all bad. But some dogs instinctively have an internal sense of a job or need to do a job. Many dogs have those requirements as a breed. A Border Collie is a very active, intelligent dog. They need the stimulus to fulfill that need for activity and challenging them and everything like that in terms of their mental capabilities. And so, I think that there are breeds that have needs, and when those needs aren't met, then that could lead to some behavior issues.

As soon as we recognize that there may be a behavioral issue, the faster we can correct that behavior, the better it will be. Just kind of like humans in a sense, dogs are creatures of habit. And so, if they're constantly doing an inappropriate behavior and repeating it over and over, it's much harder to break that cycle of repetition and that habit down the road than it is right when they may be developing it or learning it.

If a cat has ever licked you, you know they almost have a bristly-like tongue, and that helps them groom themselves. And they're very flexible so they can get to all of the areas around them, and they do a good job that way.

As long as you're getting brushes and shampoos designed for cats, then everything should be a-okay.
