Most people, unfortunately...Excellent post Sherri. Most people, unfortunately, are not observers, and they'll never see stacking of what appear to us a minute behaviors stacking up to create a bigger, identifiable issue. You're absolutely right. Dogs are not humans. The basic human failing is assuming they are just like us, because they get so good at fitting in, many become mesmerized by their ability to do that. Interesting...dogs NEVER assume (never!!!) that WE are canines! How do they keep it straight, but we fail so commonly?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6517697125324333905.post-72641184194978642172013-03-01T07:11:10.242-08:002013-03-01T07:11:10.242-08:00You blogs are smart and helpful to ALL dog owners....You blogs are smart and helpful to ALL dog owners. I have volunteered at the Humane Society of Blue Ridge (GA) for 6 years and I have noticed that lately I find myself repeating your advice to our adopters. Keep it up. I look forward to each blog.<br /><br />I have a spoo and I found you on fb. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6517697125324333905.post-63172616974254265562013-03-01T06:50:31.878-08:002013-03-01T06:50:31.878-08:00Your blogs are always very insightful and I enjoy ...Your blogs are always very insightful and I enjoy reading them (as with your books, they seem a conversation with a friend vs a "read"). This one though, really is dead on. So many of us love our "fur babies" and forget at times that they really are dogs and will behave as such in given circumstances.

There have been times when I have locked my dog in another room when the child is around because I'm afraid that one day the dog will snap at the child. He has never, ever done this in the past. Sometimes it breaks my heart. I cannot control someone else's child, I can control my dog. I look at it as I am protecting my dog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
