Although dogs are considered man's most devoted friends, sometimes they refuse to obey the will of their owner.

They start to ignore not only complex commands, but even the very presence of a person. Before clarifying and restoring the Status Quo, we need to find out the reasons.

Why does the dog ignore the owner?

Behavioral problems are often associated with health problems.

You should observe how your pet moves, how much it eats, drinks, and so on.

Also, the possibility of hearing problems should not be ruled out.

Experts point out that in the event of hearing loss, a dog may begin to boycott both commands and whistling calls.

If the animal does not respond to high-pitched sounds, you should try to call or draw the pet's attention by clapping your hands, snapping your fingers, or moving your hand.

The main thing to remember is that in such a case aggression cannot be allowed.

If the owner is angry with the pet, the dog may tolerate the owner's antics for some time, but then the owner's anger may be followed by a response.
