RE: Dog Talks For Dummies

in FreeCompliments4 months ago (edited)

Well, the thing is that humans usually don't understand dog language. And because of that lots of dogs develop problem behaviors. If humans would act correctly to what dogs are trying to tell us there would be fewer problems. Not every loud barking dog is angry, but not every loud barking dog is scared. To know what is causing the barking you have to understand the whole dog language, which means closely looking at the dog's body language, and learn to interpret the signals the dog communicates.

The same barking dog, but now the ears pointed up, slightly forward, and his tail is high in line with his back and stiff, I would take it easy and not get too close. This dog indicates, "this far and no further." And in any case, that dog is watching, you can't tell yet whether he is angry. But the chance certainly exists.

I really really have to start paying attention to all these different signs they show😳👌👌👌👌 thanks for the lessons good friend

I would definitely recommend it, especially if you have a dog yourself. Or if you encounter a lot of dogs. It is always better to know what they want to say, misunderstanding the dog language can cause many problems. It can create problem behavior in the dog if we do not understand the dog, but it can also lead to depressed dogs and people, and even to biting incidents. The dog is then blamed for this and 'presented with the bill', while it was caused by the human not understanding what the dog had been saying through his communication for a long time. A dog communicates all day, but he communicates differently than we do. He can't communicate in our language, they can learn but they can't learn to communicate in our language. Since we choose to live with them, it is up to us to learn how they communicate so that we can truly understand each other.

You're so right about this one friend sometimes they say don't run otherwise they'll chase you but it's usually due to misunderstanding the dogs
