I remember one time in the park, I saw a lady shaking her head and sighing at her dog, while the dog looked at her confused. Ms.
complained, "It always does not listen to it, I really don't understand."
In fact, every behavior of a dog has its own specific meaning.
Today, let’s explore the 8 common behaviors of dogs and the meaning behind them.
The first behavior: Licking your face or hand
The dog licking your face or hand is usually an intimate act, indicating its love and trust in you.
At the same time, it may also be that they are seeking comfort or attention.
Understand this, next time the dog licks you again, you can respond to its emotional needs more gently.
Second behavior: Chasing your own tail
The dog chases your own tail, which may look fun, but it can be a sign of boredom, anxiety, or skin problems.
As the master, you should observe the frequency and environment of this behavior to determine whether measures are needed.
The third behavior: nibble or nibble items
The dog nibble or nibble items, usually because it is during the tooth change period or needs to chew to relieve anxiety.
Providing appropriate chew toys can help them meet this need while also protecting your shoes and furniture.
The fourth behavior: The ear is pressed backward or the body is lowered
When the dog's ear is pressed backward or the body is lowered, this usually indicates that it feels scared or obedient.
In this case, the best way to do is to give the dog space to avoid sudden movements or sounds to reduce its fear.
The fifth behavior: Sniff the ground frequently
Dogs sniff the ground with their noses, which is their main way to explore the world.
This behavior not only helps them collect information, but also satisfies their curiosity.
As masters, they should be given enough time to sniff the environment.
The sixth behavior: Lift your legs to mark objects
The dog raises his legs to mark objects, which is a territorial act that declares the territory by leaving its own scent.
This behavior is more common in unspasted male dogs and can be controlled through training and proper management.
The seventh behavior: Barking at the air
The dogs barking at the air, perhaps because they hear sounds that we cannot hear, or are responding to other dogs in the distance.
In this case, the owner should patiently soothe them and try to find out what causes the barking.
The eighth behavior: Digging a hole
The dog's hole may be due to boredom, finding a cool place or instinctive hunting behavior.
provides sufficient exercise and stimulation to reduce this behavior while ensuring their paws remain healthy.
