Veterinary scientists from Texas A&M University (TAMU) have revealed why dogs suddenly go into a rage. According to their version, it may be due to rage syndrome or seizure activity in the brain.

According to the scientists, before suddenly losing their temper for no apparent reason, dogs may experience confusion, confusion, staggering and glazed eyes before or immediately after a rage outburst.

Rage syndrome is caused by a complex and poorly understood condition that involves genetics and neurological factors, the researchers noted.

Detect seizure activity in the brain by electroencephalogram or CT scan, the scientists said.

Earlier it was reported that the puppy with an unusual color was born on March 3 in the American state of Florida in the kennel Golden Treasures. Also American scientists have found a way to extend the life of dogs of one of the most popular breeds - golden retrievers. The HER4 gene plays an important role in their longevity.
