Learning dog body language is essential.
In order to properly understand, help and just live harmoniously with our dogs, we have to learn to speak dog. Unlike humans who mainly use verbal communication, dogs communicate using body language. This can sometimes make it hard for us humans to understand what our dogs are trying to tell us.
Learning dog body language is an essential part of providing the fundamentals for your dog’s wellbeing and welfare. A good communication between your dog and you will make wonders when you have to train your dog and in general make life a little easier, as it also provides a security and bond between you and your dog that will make your dog be happier and calmer. It has also been found that when dogs find out that their human is listening and understanding them, they will try to communicate even more – meaning that they will use all the silent signals before escalating their behaviour, and thereby also preventing potential problematic behaviours that might arise from your dog not being heard when communicating in a more silent manner.
