How to understand that the dog does not consider the owner as a leader: signs of dominance

29.01.2024 17:11

The owner must gain respect from the dog, and it is desirable that this quality be mutual.

It happens that pets do not just demonstrate their character, but try to dominate, not recognizing the leadership qualities of the owner. Such a situation will not lead to anything good.

Experts have explained how to understand that a dog is getting out of control and whether it is possible to curb its will.

The first sign

A dog walks its owner. Usually, everything should happen the other way around.

But in this case, the dog considers himself a leader who leads his pack, obeying instincts.

The second sign

In the human world, it is called rudeness when guests burst into the house before the owner.

A dog can do the same thing if it runs home ahead of its owner, without waiting for him to cross the threshold first.

The third sign

Try taking something from the dog's bowl.

If your pet respects you, it will gladly share its food. Otherwise, be prepared to be rebuffed as an aggressor, not a beloved owner.

The fourth sign

This is elementary. The dog will stop following your commands, will not respond to its name, and will also ignore the owner, considering his demands meaningless.

And the last sign

If the animal trusts the owner, it will guard his sleep and peace. If there is no respect, the dog can go to sleep anywhere. It will not care what happens to the owner.
