Pet Behavior Gone Wrong

Is your dog destroying furniture when you're not home? Is your cat scratching sofas, doors, or walls no matter what you try? Has playful nipping or sudden biting turned into a serious concern? If you're living with destructive pet behavior and feeling frustrated, confused, or helpless, this book was written for you. Pet Behavior Gone Wrong explains why chewing, scratching, and biting happen in the first place—and why most common advice fails to stop it. Instead of blaming your pet or relying on punishment, this guide helps you understand the emotional, environmental, and behavioral triggers behind these actions. When you understand the cause, change becomes possible. Drawing on real-life examples and behavior science, this book breaks down destructive pet behavior in clear, simple language. You'll learn why dogs chew to cope with stress, why cats scratch to feel secure, and why biting is often a response to fear or overstimulation rather than aggression. Each chapter shows how everyday mistakes can unintentionally reinforce bad habits—and how to correct them the right way. Inside, you'll discover practical solutions that actually work, including how to redirect destructive chewing, reduce stress-driven scratching, and prevent biting before it escalates. You'll learn how routine, environment, and calm consistency can transform behavior without fear, force, or confusion. This is not a quick-fix training manual. It's a realistic, step-by-step approach designed for real homes and real pets. Whether you're a first-time pet owner or struggling with long-standing behavior issues, Pet Behavior Gone Wrong gives you clarity, confidence, and a proven path forward. If you want a calmer home, a safer environment, and a stronger bond with your dog or cat, this book shows you how to make it happen—starting today.
