Hyperkinesis is a neurological disorder affecting the brain and nervous system, where a dog exhibits pathological, extreme overactivity and an inability to calm down. It is caused by a chemical imbalance of neurotransmitters, which are the chemical messengers that transmit signals in the brain. This imbalance prevents the brain from properly regulating activity levels and impulse control.
Owners typically notice symptoms at a young age, characterized by extreme restlessness, constant pacing, and an inability to sleep even in quiet environments. Affected dogs may also show a lack of impulse control and an elevated heart rate.
While the condition is lifelong and incurable, it can be managed through daily medication and behavioral therapy. Managing this disorder requires ongoing veterinary care, with lifetime costs typically ranging from €2,000 to €7,000.
