Dogs sometimes jump down from the table, get into fights with other dogs, get caught in a cage door as it is closing, etc. Sometimes dogs are injured secondary to negligence, but in the majority of cases, it is just the dog suffering from psychogenic distress and acting alone. Stress will lead to new infections or aggravation of a disease that the dog already has. Your dog, for example, may have been fine at home, and then the stress led to a bout of inflammatory bowel disease, which sometimes causes cramping. Besides the normal signs of stress, there are many signs of stress that we may not even be aware of, such as immune system depression, inflammatory bowel disease, slow wound healing, erratic heartbeat. Most of the groomers do what they can to calm down a dog, but some pets do not want to be away from their homes and will show up with signs of stress. Regular grooming is necessary for your dog, but unfortunately 4% of grooming visits end up with a visit to the veterinarian.
