subject: Discover The Secret To Understand Your Dog By Following These 3 Steps Guaranteed [print this page] Let us look at this issue from a different angle. Dogs are the best pets and we love dogs; we don't want to behave like a usual dog owner. It is time that we all stop treating a friend like a toy to play with. Even dogs have their own mind. Separating the puppies from their mothers at the age of 6-8 weeks has become our practice. As we've brought a friend home, it is our responsibility to treat him like our friend.
Dogs are descendants of wolves but have become very attached to humans. It is very natural for us to reciprocate with the same level of love and attachment. Each dog has a master to whom he is fiercely loyal. However, he demonstrates varying levels of attachment towards other members of the family as well. The responsibility is now ours to treat him as a friend and a member of the family. This actually eliminates one of the many causes of barking of dogs.
There are some people who get really scared when dogs start barking. This seems to be an easy way for them to commune with us. There are some other ways as well through which dogs try to communicate. The faint sounds that they make and the fleeting expressions on their faces tell us a lot. We ought to be more attentive and sensitive. We should be able to understand these subtle signals and also respond to the same.
Dogs are known to be very intelligent yet very complex species. They usually have certain pre-defined needs including foods, exercises and bit of attention. Try to understand their emotions and you'll not be wishing them away. Our friend will not feel the need to bark only if we can realize whether he is feeling jaded, lonely or simply sick.
It is quite certain that you would want to bring up your dear puppy as a member of your family. Therefore, you must ignore all the advice given in the dog training sites and books. It is important that you stop giving one-word commands and expect your dog to behave as a robot. Talk to the dog as often as possible and for longer duration if you possibly can. Never underrate your dog. Dogs are known to make sense of entire sentences. The poor guy can't speak; or else we would have realized his intelligence.
Can we try to summon up all the main beliefs of body language and face reading and start applying them to the dogs? In real time, your friend is actually giving you countless signals that you must understand. Carefully observe his whole body emphasizing on the face and the eyes. If you succeed in reaching out to his soul, your instincts would then take care of everything else. His love, his desires and all his needs will be clear to you.
Your puppy needs to be treated as a child and you must do everything that a responsible parent would do. Your friend would not need a silencer. It is probably you who need a loudspeaker to hear this unspoken language of the world of canines.
