DogSpeak: Improving communication between you and your canine
Renee: You have just said yourself, you don't know what a dog is trying to say to someone. The woman didn't do anything malicious, but remember that dogs don't communicate the same way people do. Her error was to approach a strange dog (in a strange setting that was probably pretty stressful to him) in a manner that's pretty intimidating to dogs. I didn't watch the clip but from reading about it I believe she e... (continued)

DogSpeak: Improving communication between you and your canine
I am no dog lover or even would know what a dog is trying to say to someone. But why is it when an animal does something wrong to a person the animal lovers of the world always try and find something wrong that the human did. The anchor woman that was bit by that awful dog on national television did nothing wrong. I have seen many dogs looking at people with their tongues hanging out and never proceed to bite that ...

DogSpeak - improving communication between you and your canine
Also consider peofessional animal communication as an option for understanding behaviroal issues. We go in, speak with you pup one-on-one, get to know what they are expereincing when they are doing the certain behaviors. Knowing from their perspecitive can make a world of difference to both the pet and the pet parent. Offering them solutions instead of forcing them to do something that is counter to their normal in... (continued)

I think dogs are very much like young children. They learn something is wrong by conditioning. A child doesn't intrinsically know right from wrong nor does he/she come into the world being considerate of others. That is learned eventually because they are rewarded for good behavior and/or punished for bad behavior. The child eventually internalizes these concepts but only AFTER the reations of the parents. The pers... (continued)

my dog acts strange before i find out what she did. she'll use those behaviors you speak of before my body language changes, i'll be happy, talk to her and pet her, but she'll have her tail between her legs ears down, "whale-eyed". when i ask her what's wrong she runs away until i find out what she did. how do you explain that behavior, if it's not guilt i don't know what it is....seriously.

When I was much younger we had a wonderful dog and the only thing she distroyed was my sister's shoes because she was closer to her than anyone else and all she wanted to do was to be close to her scent she loved us all but never distroyed any of our stuff just my sister's.

Our dog that we had for a very short while was very distrutive because he needed company and we worked all day but she showed me what she was doing before I even knew and I almost lost it because of all the damage she did so I had to turn her back but it really made me very upset because I had to turn her back to the shelter because she kept on distroying one time a shock stick and took all of my husband's strength for me to stay away from her.

I don't want my dog to feel fearful or distressed, but I feel like I need to do something to let her know getting in the trash is not OK. Also, she is house-trained except when I am on the computer a long time and ignore her. It doesn't matter if she has just gone out. It seems like she is expressing displeasure at being ignored. How can I deal with these behaviours effectively?

I've learned through this article and wanted to let you know that Alexandra Horowitz has done more recent research to confirm previous findings. Dogs are conditioned to offer these looks. They will offer the look whether or not they've done something wrong. There is also now a compnay in ny dogspies.com working on this too! Search them!

Mary- Dogs do what is rewarding in the moment. So perhaps your dog is just tired from having fun in a way you would not prefer him to? You see he is not there to greet you, so you start looking for him and calling hom, and although you may not be aware that you are changing the tone of your voice, or the body language, you can be. Dogs are also capable of picking up subtleties that we are not. They don't have t... (continued)
