Dog owners often complain that their pet's behavior during a walk becomes unpredictable.

At the same time, it is not uncommon to hear comments that the dog seems to have been replaced by someone. According to experts, the animal's behavior is shaped by two circumstances.

We will tell you what a dog owner should be prepared for when walking his pet.

What determines a dog's behavior

There are only two reasons – age and experience. They can turn an obedient house dog into an uncontrollable one on the street.

Age

Everything is clear here. Most often, young animals start behaving unpredictably on the street.

For them, everything seems new, special, and therefore unusual.

The reason is not in the character, but in the fact that at home the dog is not distracted by anything and there are no external stimuli.

On the street, due to inexperience, dogs may begin to ignore commands and otherwise surprise the owner.

Experience

As for adult dogs, they may act up because the owner does not follow the pet walking schedule.

In this case, the dog will enjoy the rare opportunity to run, so you shouldn’t expect obedience from your pet either.
