Chapter 1: Dog's Action and Psychology

Dogs use their tails to express their feelings. When the dog is in the police state, the tail is upright, and only the tip of the nose shakes quickly and slightly. When a dog is happy, its tail hangs down, it starts to shake from its roots, its mouth sticks up and its tongue sticks out.

Abdominal upward is the biggest concession for dogs, indicating absolute obedience. Lie on your back, show your abdomen and obey completely.

The dog's nose is wet to absorb the smell in the air, so don't rub it.

For human language, dogs are equivalent to the understanding ability of human three-year-old children. So there are about twenty or thirty commands that can understand the meaning by language alone. At the same time, dogs can understand about 300 words with the help of sight or smell, such as remembering food or names.

In order to declare his position to the dog, the owner can put the dog between his legs, let him lie on his back, then stop talking and keep this state for the time being. In this way, he can tell the dog that he can't do whatever he wants.

When the dog sleeps, his chin sticks to the ground to protect himself, and he touches any slight sound through bone conduction.

Take the dog for a walk. If it is chased by other dogs, it looks like it will be attacked. Please ask the owner to pick it up quickly and protect it. This will help strengthen the dog's trust in its owner.

Chapter two: Dog's habits and psychology.

Barking is just a manifestation of loneliness, and barking expresses loneliness.

Dogs growl at other dogs while walking, which is a sign of lack of sociality. Dogs with no social experience will start to get nervous because they don't know how to deal with their companions, and then they will roar when they meet them.

Dogs can find their way home because of biological magnetic field and keen sense of smell. Dogs can tell directions like compasses. The dog's biological magnetic field can sense the physiological structure of the earth's magnetic field. Dogs' sense of smell is more than 6,543.8+billion times more sensitive than that of humans, and they can capture faint smells.

In order to get information from the smell, dogs greet each other by smelling their butts. Dogs sniff their butts to confirm each other's sex and strength.

Chapter Three: Dog's Behavior and Psychology

Dogs bow their heads, pout their tails and wag their tails to show their invitation. This is a social behavior of dogs, not a friendly gesture. Put your nose and face together and get someone to take care of it.

Teaching dogs eye contact can establish the dignity of their owners. Step 1, starting with calling his name and giving him snacks, train the dog to look into his owner's eyes immediately whenever he hears his call.

When walking, the dog pulls the dog rope. It thinks it is the boss, and the owner should control the direction of progress. Dogs should know that their master's instructions must be obeyed, and the master is the boss.

If the owner wants to test whether he is trusted by the dog, he can try to hold the dog's front paw. If the dog doesn't resist, let the owner lead it, which shows that the owner trusts his dog. If the dog lets go, it's a pity that the trust relationship between you has not been established.

If the breeding environment is not good, the dog will run away from home, and it will want to go to the place that can make it feel at ease most. Another reason why dogs run away is that bitches smell pheromones when they are in heat. As I said before, the bitch will get excited when she smells this smell, and she can't calm down and stay honest. So in order to prevent this from happening, please take the dog for sterilization.

Chapter Four: Dog's Body and Mind

Dog saliva has the effect of sweating. The hotter the weather, the more saliva. This is the way dogs regulate their body temperature.

According to an American survey, dogs like beef best, followed by pork, mutton, chicken and horse meat. Although dogs are not sensitive to taste, they like more expensive beef, which is admirable, which may be a headache for their owners.

Dogs will be poisoned if they eat onions, but they can't eat onions. Dogs may die if they eat xylitol. Chocolate is also bad for dogs. Dogs can't eat chicken bones, because chicken bones may stab the mouth or digestive organs, and sometimes even kill dogs.

Dangerous foods that dogs are not allowed to eat are: raw eggs, raw fish, liver, caffeine, grapes, macadamia nuts, avocados and garlic. Eating these things will be toxic and even life-threatening.

Things you can't do for a dog with phobia are: don't put it under your body, don't stare at the dog's eyes, don't touch its stomach, don't pull its ears and tail.

Generally speaking, the life span of dogs is about 0/5 years old for small dogs 13 years old for medium dogs 10 years old for large dogs.

Chapter 5: Behavior of male and female dogs.

Characteristics of male dogs: naughty, lively, urinating on one foot and loving Mark.

Bitch characteristics: smart, squatting to pee, making love twice a year. Bitches in heat will become unstable.

Male dogs will change their temperament when they smell the bitch in estrus, so they need to pay attention when walking their dogs.

Female dogs before estrus will not accept male dogs. If a male dog approaches at this time, the female dog is likely to rush up and bite it.

Bitches in estrus will tilt their tails, which are usually hung in the middle, to the left and right, showing their bloodshot genitals to male dogs. Bitch estrus lasts about three weeks.
