Getting To Understand Your Dog's Behavior

In this article we look at how important it is for a canine owner to understand the behavior of his canine friend.

For an owner of a dog, the only thing that really puffs him up with pride is when his canine friend is well behaved and also knows a bunch of tricks. Any owner would love to show off a smart dog, obedient and full of tricks. Gone are the days of wagging his tail or licking your face in delight. No doubt they still do that. But besides that, they have so much more ability to perform and you will be surprised at all that dogs can do. If you have ever been to the circus, then it is not difficult to understand that. They are able to do much more than guard your house or take care of you.

If you really want them to bond with you then you need to understand certain aspects of their behavior. You really need to take out that extra time and understand them well. Just like a pack in the wild, they feel that this family is the 'pack', so if you do not learn to control them then they will take control. You need to make them know that you are boss, and what you say is going to be followed. Once they have understood that, it is easier for them to submit to you.

Sometimes you have to be firm, and it may seem a little rude but this is the best way. As after all he is an animal, and needs to know that he cannot bully you into submission. You should do little things like feed him, after you have eaten or allow him to sit near your feet (especially when he's feeling warm and nice). It is okay to love him and show tenderness from time to time, but disallowing certain things will show him that he cannot expect special treatment.

I have actually seen some dogs holding their owners to ransom by making that very sad face, when they are asked to leave the room. Most owners feel bad and give in. But do realize that this is a trick the dog is using to get you to feel bad. And you fell for that sad look! In certain ways like this, they do replicate human nature a lot. They also have moods, so stay in tune so you can feel upto a certain extent and have an explanation for certain behavior. And for this you need to bond with the animal and build a relationship. Then it becomes much easier to understand all types of signals and work accordingly to sustain your wavelength of understanding your canine. Make every effort to understand him.

Many world-famous Doctors of Veterinary Medicine and published Dog Care Experts universally agree any dog that eats commercial dog food is at a much higher risk of dying prematurely and by the time symptoms are noticeable, it's often too late to prevent an agonizing death except by lethal injection.
