Drama Dog Pretends to Faint To Avoid Nail Trimming – The Video
This video is making its round in social media and the news. When it is time to get her nails trimmed, the dramatic dog actually can fake a fainting spell. It’s hilarious! Give her an Oscar!
Take a break. Watch this video. It will make you feel better. Just like it did for me.
Do Dogs Really Faint?
Fainting is also known as syncope. Usually, this is caused by not having enough blood flow to the brain. It can happen to people. But is actually not common in dogs.
For example, when a dog gets frightened, they do not usually faint. Unlike us humans, some of us can get so scared that we collapse from fright due to panic attacks or hyperventilation, etc.
At the same time, it is not that dogs cannot faint. It happens only when the doggy is not well. Seizures and abnormal brain activities can cause it. Cardiac problems can be the culprit too.
So, if your fur friend has fainted. Really fainted. Not like our drama queen in the video. Then it is best to quickly bring him or her to the vet.
All said, the reason why it is clear that the cute doggy in the video did not really faint is because at the end of the video, you can see the mischievous little thing with her eyes open and checking out if her ruse has worked. So funny!
How Are Dogs Able To Act So Dramatic?
In other words, a Drama Queen. hahaha
PETA shared that it is possible for dogs to be dramatic. They are known as Reactive Dogs. According to PETA, these cute canines behave like human drama queens. That is, in the sense that they respond to outside stimuli in an overly emotional way.
If your fur friend is one that tends to behave dramatically, then it is best to provide a quiet and calm environment. Also, do not feed the drama.
One thing about drama queens is that they like the attention. It is same with these drama dogs. The only way to wean them out of such behavior is to not give them the attention.
You can attend to them if you are concerned that they may be hurt. But do not scream or panic. Getting all worked up gives them what they want, and they will continue to behave in such manner.
So, stay calm and simply attend to your doggy friend in case there are any injuries due to the ‘fainting’.

Great article Timotheus animals are smarter than most realize. We don’t give them enough credit they can outsmart us at times. I have found out with training they will go far beyond what humans will do. I like this post dogs need more attention and love.
I totally agree with you, Fred. Animals are smart. All it takes is for us to understand them.
And yes, dogs need more attention and love. Please check out our other post about a dog saved from the streets.
