It is generally accepted that a dog will always love and respect its owner, even if he makes gross mistakes.

In fact, a pet can be seriously offended by a person. And even in the most "harmless" situations, according to the owner.

It is clear that harsh physical punishment cannot be used against a four-legged friend.

But there are still several human actions that can seriously ruin his relationship with his dog.

Unfair Punishments

The dog must understand what exactly it is being punished for. Therefore, never postpone taking action "for later".

And also avoid unfair punishments. For example, for failure to follow complex or unclear commands.

Reluctance to play with the dog

If your four-legged friend "invites" you to play, you shouldn't refuse him. This should only be done in extreme cases.

If there are too many refusals, the pet will feel unnecessary.

Intimidating gestures

When "communicating" with a dog, avoid using threatening gestures. Never swing at the dog or show him your fist.

Yes, at first such techniques will help make your pet more obedient.

But then the dog, accustomed to such behavior from the owner, will only get angry.

Sleep interruption

Don't deprive your dog of a peaceful rest. Don't wake it up unless absolutely necessary.

Otherwise, your pet will start to treat you much worse.
