Every dog might wish to be Dog One, but like us, most dogs want membership in the group even more than they want supremacy over others.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult.
Owners lavish love on their pets, which is why so many go from non-aggressive pups to being out of control when they're older. People just don't realise their dog must respect them as leader of the pack.
Dogs who live in each other's company are calm and pragmatic, never showing the desperate need to make known their needs and feelings or to communicate their observations, as some hysterical dogs who know only the company of our species are likely to do.
It is the job of the dog trainer to summon the dog's genetics, not to impose man's will over dog's.
Dogs like to learn stuff, if not from another dog, then people are OK... They love activity, playing, interesting walks, and just belonging, being together.
A dog is like a liberal. He wants to please everybody. A cat really doesn't need to know that everybody loves him.
Dogs are very, very pleasant with people that they're connected to.
In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semi-human. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly a dog.
People always joke that 'dog' spells 'god' backwards. They should consider that it might be the higher power coming down to see just how well they do, what kind of people they are. The animals are right here, right in front of us. And how we treat these companions is a test.
Do you know why dogs are man's best friend? It's because they're not in politics.
