OK..NOW WHAT? (Community Q&A)
Is my dog really feeling guilty? Whatās the truth?

Guilty or treat seeking..hmmm?š¤
Weāve all noticed our pups giving those "guilty" looks after a mischievous act havenāt we? So are they?
Here's an engaging peek into the latest findings:
While it may seem like your pup is feeling remorse, fascinating research indicates that dogs might not experience guilt in the same way humans do.
Those heart-melting behaviors, such as averting their eyes, cowering, or hiding, could actually be linked to emotions like fear or seeking to appease their beloved dog parents.
Understanding that our doggos actions are more likely driven by seeking to avoid conflict or gain approval rather than experiencing guilt can focus our interactions with them.
By recognizing that our pups may not comprehend the concept of guilt as we do, we can foster stronger bonds & implement more effective training techniques.
So next time your pup gives you those soulful eyes, remember, it's not about guilt but about their unique way of communicating with you & seeking your reassurance.š¶ MORE HERE
