DWQA QuestionsCategory: Animal IssuesA viewer asks: “I was wondering if you could do a check on my dog. He is turning his head in very odd way when defecating and has been doing this for 2 months. Maybe 3 months. The vets are baffled. I’m wondering if he should see a neurologist. Seems like a nerve situation. I will include video if that helps. It came on quickly. He doesn’t do it every time, but most times.” What is Creator’s perspective?

This is simply idiosyncratic behavior. The dog is associating the act of elimination with prior circumstances when he was attacked suddenly in a somewhat compromising position, being distracted by a call of nature, so to speak. This is not a serious matter, nor is it in need of a healing intervention by conventional veterinary care.
