In addition, the pet insurance provider has disclosed some of the most unusual claims made by owners of their insured pets.

ManyPets vet Dr. Rebecca MacMillan, advises: “Some of these dogs can have a stubborn or independent streak, whereas others are high-energy and will need an experienced owner who can give them plenty of time and attention. With patience and consistency, these dogs canalso learn to follow their owner’s commands.”

Dr. MacMillan believes that so-called ‘naughty’ dogs require the same approach and training as those considered well-behaved.

She adds: “Positive, rewards-based training is always the best way to teach dogs new behaviours, especially if they’re naughty.

“That means lots of treats, praise and encouragement – never punishments, raised voices or negative actions. Negative actions always lead to anxiety, fear, mistrust and aggression, which are the exact behaviours owners try to rectify in naughty dogs.”

If your dog is struggling, ManyPets recommends consulting with your vet and a reputable pet behaviourist.
