About My Corgi(s):
We rescued him seven years ago, and has been on anxiety medication (prozac) for OCD, and anxiety. It has worked somewhat ok, until a new cat arrived in Nov. (our cat passed away last June) He was here when Freddie arrived. Now Freddie is refusing to walk on various places of the floor, barks nonstop, acting afraid of something that isn't there. The Vet has put him on Zoloft, and says he's using his natural instinct to focus on OCD? If that makes any sense? It's driving my crazy. Today, he refused to walk through the room with a toy, and crawled under a table to bring it to me.

    Welcome to the group! Freddie looks so handsome. That really is an adorable picture of him. Good luck on his behaviour issues.

    I am a human with OCD, and trust me its probably just as hard for Freddie as it is for you. However dogs live in the moment, humans do not.

    I have never been on the same medication as a dog before, so this is new to me. I was on Prozac when I was younger, and am now on 100mg Zoloft. But I was told that human medication was bad for dogs. How is it Freddie is able to take these medications?

    Belated welcome to Freddie and to Luanne too! This is Carol from wheelcorgis! I have a Tri on wheels and a sable couch potato, both rescues. Lucky is our Tri, and a handful - barks, he is the wanderer, I think he is ADHD at times! Good luck with meds - i am a retired dietitian and pharmacy technician also. Medications can be hard.
