Pet parents must have often witnessed their dogs communicating with them through gestures and body language. To provide an apt example, this Instagram video shows a Chow Chow–Corgi mix setting boundaries. In the clip, the pet, Honey, does not let her owner touch her when the human tries to pet her. The uploader explains in the caption: “Babygirl is very particular about when and how she is touched and we STAN.” Meanwhile, viewers have also shown their support in the comment section.
Dog has very clear boundaries when it comes to touches and owner respects that
In a funny and cute dog video on Instagram, an owner captures how her Chow Chow-Corgi mix has very clear boundaries. Through an onscreen text, the uploader mentions, “For those asking why I’m not constantly hugging her.” Then, she proceeds to show the reason.
In the clip, the dog named Honey is quietly sitting on a tea table. She looks at her owner when she approaches the pooch, thinking of petting her head. As soon as the woman brings her palm closer to Honey’s head, the latter dodges the touch. Furthermore, the pet parent keeps her palm in the air for a while, trying to get closer to the pooch. But the fur baby avoids it and clearly shows her dislike with low growls.
Meanwhile, the owner cannot stop laughing as she explains to viewers why she doesn’t hug Honey. Presumably, it is because the pet has set boundaries and doesn’t let anyone touch her at any time. As per the caption of the dog touches owner video, the woman respects Honey’s choice. However, the dog’s reaction has left some netizens in stitches.
Aside from laughing emojis, viewers have also shown support in the comments. A user wrote, “he makes herself so clear. I’m so glad you comply, although I can see how it must be so difficult not to smoosh her all the time.” Moreover, the dog touches the owner video has garnered over 6K likes as of writing.
