After more than 10,000 years of getting along with humans, dogs and humans can be said to have completely integrated into our lives. It is precisely because our relationship with dogs is so close that people often make a mistaken notion- ---We often use human thoughts to explain the behavioral motives of dogs, ignoring that dogs have unique and different thinking patterns from humans; it is also because of this wrong concept that we communicate with dogs, discipline and training, resulting in a lot of questions. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the meaning of some behaviors of dogs.
The dog's intention to show its belly
Apology: When the owner blames the dog, the dog doesn't know what happened, but only knows the owner If you're angry, just roll your belly and apologize.
Submissive: The puppy treats people as dogs, so they will bare their belly in awe.
Coquetry: The adult dog will make people look at the belly, indicating that it is as small as a baby. Flash peeing is common in female dogs under six months. The reason why a male dog won't be because his urethra is longer.
Surrender: When a dog meets a dog for the first time, a lower-ranking dog will reveal his belly when he sees a higher-ranking dog, even if the other party is full of anger, it will soothe it.
When do dogs wag their tails
The only tool an emotional dog uses to communicate his inner thoughts is his tail. According to the tail, we can understand the psychological and dangerous state of the dog. For example, when it meets the opposite sex it likes, its tail will be erected at a right angle and vibrated slightly. When angry, the tail droops. When happy, the tail will make a large swing to the left and right. When you are afraid, you tuck your tail under your belly, which is the proverbial saying to run away with your tail tucked. When the average dog is in good health, the tail is usually very tightly curled, and when it is sick, it hangs loosely. At this point, when the hound smells the prey, the tail stretches out straight to point out where the prey is. The dog's tail is so important, why do some breeds hate tail docking? This is very bad. A dog's tail has about twenty coccygeal vertebrae, surrounded by six thick blood vessels, and there are countless nerve fibers distributed, which directly connect with the brain through the spine. So the senses of the brain are fully channeled to the tail and revealed. If you dock a dog's tail for purely cosmetic or portability reasons, you're just shutting down the dog's emotional tool and doing nothing!
The dog knows who hates it
The dog's nose has a strong sense of smell and observation. In addition to smelling, it can also read the owner's expression. Maybe people who hate dogs have a strong smell on them. Even if the person tries to curry favor with dogs, it will not be deceived, but will increase their vigilance. The smell of dogs! Similarly, dogs will hate dogs. They know that they are not compatible with each other by their smell. Dogs with a strong sense of hostility will usually fight without a word, and the loser will remember this. Just the smell of a nasty dog, waiting for the next showdown to take a detour.
Rules in the dog world
Families with several dogs at the same time are a different story. If there is only one dog in the house, it may only come into contact with other dogs when going out for a walk. So when you go for a walk, try to let your dog play with other dogs as much as possible. In games of its kind, it will learn many things that humans cannot teach it. For example, where the body is bitten will hurt; what kind of things do other dogs stop playing with themselves and so on. In addition, let the dog have more contact with humans and accept their (adult or child) petting. This is an important part of making a dog social. Let him get used to being petted by strangers. When he goes to the pet hospital to see a doctor, he can receive treatment smoothly, and he won't keep barking when he encounters a dog he doesn't know while walking. .
