Transitions are never easy.
When your whole world is tied to a single individual, and you are now thrown into a new home, with new people and new animals, and right away you're expected to fit in, it can be pretty tough. All of a sudden it's new routines that you're unfamiliar with, new voices, new faces, new expectations and frustrations. And to top it off, now you have to meet even more strangers who might come and take you away. The stresses you've had to face can be pretty scary, whether you're a dog or a person. And it follows naturally that when you're scared and feeling the pressure of a whole new set of circumstances, you may act out in ways that are out of the ordinary for you.
