How long it takes for a dog to get better after being frightened is related to the degree of fright. A slightly frightened dog will generally get better within a few hours, but if the dog is severely frightened, it will appear fear, lack of energy, and defecation. Abnormalities and other stress symptoms may take several days to get better.
After a dog is frightened, it is best for the owner to comfort the dog in time and spend more time with the dog dog, to increase its sense of security. During the dog's recovery period, the owner needs to keep the dog's environment quiet to prevent it from being frightened again.
