When Dog Behavior Surprises Me

It only makes me love them more
Many dogs that I meet, know and work with are somewhat predictable. That even applies to the aggressive ones who make up a large portion of my practice, and that is a good thing. There are common patterns in canine behavior that keep surprises to a minimum: Most dogs who are fearful are more afraid of men than of women. Play is often more effective at improving dogs’ emotional state than treats are. Once a dog has been upset by something on a walk, that dog will be more likely to react to other stimuli while on that walk. A dog who has just had a lot of exercise will tend to be calmer and more content than a dog who has not recently been physically active.
