So your wondering what goes through your dog's mind when you shower them with affection?
🐶Here's the scoop from us pups: not all of us are head over paws for hugs & kisses. According to experts like Dr. Emily Levine, many of us actually just tolerate being petted.
Sometimes we might be masking our true feelings of annoyance or discomfort, so it's essential for you to pay attention to our body language to make sure we're truly enjoying the attention.
Understanding what we like can be a bit like navigating a culture clash between the hooman & doggo worlds.
Dr. Levine suggests looking out for signs of anxiety or aggression as signals to give us some space.
By focusing on quality interactions over quantity & respecting our boundaries, you can strengthen our bond & ensure we have a paw-some time together.
To decode our feelings, Dr. Levine recommends becoming fluent in our body language. We communicate through subtle cues that you can learn to interpret with practice.
By tuning into our signals and adjusting your approach accordingly, you can create a super-close relationship based on mutual understanding & respect.
It's all about finding the right balance of affection & activities that bring joy to our special times together!! 🐶 MORE HERE
