26 Things Dogs Hate and Wish You'd Stop Doing

Dogs are so amazing, they give us their all, and all for so little in return. The unconditional love, trust, affection,loyalty,prote tion and all the laughter they give us. We lose them so soon, their lives are so short, seems like it's over before we've really begun. I always think that this this is the price we pay for all they give us... ❤❤❤❤

As a man that ended up on the streets after an accident with my dog. I went through hell to keep my dog. A dog having one owner his/her whole life is extremely important. Getting a dog should have an unbreakable commitment. The best thing about a dog is loyalty and that's what I give all my animals. Till death do us part. Bitter sweet endings.

"Dogs can't feel guilt" My dog came down one day slouched over with tail between his legs and refused to come over when called and went straight to his bed and curled himself. I even waved his favorite treat at him, and wondered why he didn't come over. Found out he had poo-pooed on the carpet next to the fire place and I hadn't found out until hours later, when I was wondering why he didn't want to come hang out with me next to the fireplace.

[@Davidson0617]

They clearly show some form of anticipation of your reaction when they have done something they know you dislike. Whether they truley understand regret, or if they just dont want to be scolded, they show an understanding of a past action. So they know why they're being scolded.

[@chuckhoyle1211]

I'm calling BS on that too. I can always tell when my dog has done something bad. She looks horribly guilt-ridden. If it was just an accident I don't make a big deal out of it. It was my fault for not letting her out often enough.

[@bohemianwriter1]

Dogs are a lot more complex creatures as we give them credit for. This does not only apply to dogs, but a range of animals.

Yeah my dog had diarrhoea and couldn’t hold it and she ran into the bathroom and was super uncomfortable afterwards because she knows that she shouldn’t do it. Idk if it was guilt or if she was ashamed.

[@foxer9965]

Same with my dogs , I can say a thing in ' complex ' and very different sentences and they know excately what I tell them . Also they do in 4 different languages too . Im from Denmark and my dogs they understand Danish , English , Chinese and Tagalog ( Philippino languages ) . I Lived in China in many years and now in philippines so I have used all languages just as normal and they simply just understand . I can even ' mix ' a sentence and say something half in Danish and ( example ) finish in chinese and they fully understand it , they even try to ' talk / reply' back by using sounds to reply . Sometimes they can complain if they want something and I say no then they start ' discussing ' with talk like noises and when I for example repeat ' I told it is a no ' they really argue , it is actually funny . Dogs are more clever than many people think / know .

Actually some dogs LOVE belly rubs. One of my mom’s best friends has one of the sweetest and friendliest dogs I’ve ever met, Jackson, and he’s such a love bug AND a cuddle bug! At friendly gatherings and parties, he always tries to make sure he’s noticed by as many people as possible. And if he wants a belly rub, he rolls over onto his back and he gives you the “puppy dog eyes” begging look that says “please PLEASE give me a belly rub” and once you do, he follows you everywhere you go. So actually I think dogs not liking belly rubs is actually for just particular dogs, because I’ve been around dogs my entire life and every single one, including the first one I’ve had and the one I have now, all love belly rubs

[@greathoonta3461]

I gotta say, these are all 100% correct as someone who has been working with dogs for years and has many of them. Although one thing you missed is how much dogs hate when you blow on them, in dog language it basically means you want nothing to do with them which is pretty mean. Another thing is don’t take your dog on a walk with an extremely short leash, it isn’t entertaining for them and it isn’t sufficient exercise since dogs needs tons of exercise. If you live in the country teach them to walk off leash, my dogs adore off leash walks. I also suggest clearing out a space in your home for them to have a play area.

[@jaimiehayward6359]

[@SysterYster]

Scientists have proven that dogs DO feel guilt and they know when they've done something wrong. They're pack animals, and as such, these things are necessary. But that said, you shouldn't yell at them for doing bad things, you should instead try to figure out why they're doing the things. Maybe they are bored or understimulated?

[@angelwings7930]

Exactly.

[@tonyl1593]

I noticed animals also teach eachother things. I had a cat that use to open the gate(and doors that are slightly open) with his paws. And after a while my dog started doing the samething. Edit: also yes they do feel guilt. I experience this from my dog a few times as well as a bunch of other emotions. And they can learn quite alot of words and phrases too.

[@dannybelanger5501]

Yell as in screaming at them no. But raising your voice a bit. And telling them. You know better than what you just did what's wrong with you like to do that that's a bad dog. Or something along that line. We generally have your dog put his head down insane and disappointed and then you will try to please you and get your forgiveness. But whether it be a dog a child or a grown adult. At times we're going to be bored or unstimulated it's a part of life. Teach him how to deal with that emotion. And you will have a lot less problems when you're gone. The dog knows that it pleases you that they watch her home when you're gone. That that is his job. he will be happy knowing he's pleasing you and not be so all the anxiety when you're gone. And I'm having a dog companion like another dog helps a lot as well

[@seanfaherty]

I got a dog with no guilt, first one I've ever seen. You take too long getting ready for a walk ? She'll go by her self . Not one fuck to give. She listens though but I think she might be part cat

[@scottdetter]

Another misnomer is that a dog doesn’t know whether he’s being spoiled or not. You can live in a big house with lots of toys and walks and play time but your dog just thinks it is normal. Conversely, he could be in a one room shack, walked infrequently, 1 or 2 toys to play with. If they have love and affection from their owner, that’s all they care about.

They won't let me say hello or play. Thats when I know to look for the bathroom accident or destroyed belonging. Plus, the whole "kissing your dog`s face gives them anxiety" is very much case by case. I have had and worked with (vet tech and pet hotels) many pups that lean in and initiate face kisses

The more I see of these videos , the more I think my dog is broken .. The vacuum cleaner , she loves it. Always bugging me till I use the cleaner on her, probably she feels it like a kind of massage. Fresh washed clothes, blankets - same story. Doesn't matter what I'm preparing in the kitchen, she sits in 1st row. Hoping all the food will fall on the ground. Forcing her into socializing was something I had to do, but as part of training. And it worked ! Rushing the dog during walks was something she did on her own. I had to slow her down and learn to sniff around.

Mine is a weirdo because he loves fireworks, and he has an emotional attachment to the towel he was brought home in as a puppy that we still have nearly eleven years later.

[@JCesarH]

My girlfriend's dog may be an outlier, but she loves getting cuddled. If you kiss her in her face of her muzzle she won't lean away but turn towards you to lick your face. Something that surprises me is that we can really cuddle her, like fully wrap your arms around and she doesn't show any sign of stress or discomfort. She's been raised with lots of attention since she was a pup, and doesn't really understand 'personal space' though. I don't mind, I love that dog. Also, keep in mind what breed your dog is, different breeds needs different things. Don't dress your husky because it's cold outside, and don't expect shepherds or work breeds to sit in an appartment all day and be content.

[@Elysiumsw]

My dog is the same way. When he's on my lap, I'll make "kissy" noises and he'll put his nose against mine. He also likes me petting his muzzle too. When we are on the couch together he'll just plop his muzzle in my hand and poke me until I pet him on it. I was always told to get dogs comfortable with you touching their ears/muzzle when they are young. It'll make it easier for vets when they are older. ...lol My dog will let me touch those places, just not the vet. Oh well.

I disagree about the fact that dogs don’t feel guilt. My dog always knew he did something wrong. When I would come home from work he would get off the couch and greet me. But if he had an accident he would hide but it was just an accident. I didn’t punish him I just found a dog walker that would help him during the day so he would not have to wait so long. Much happier dog and happier owner. The dog walker would often take him to a dog park so he can play and when I got home he was too tired to get off the couch … slowly he would stretch and greet me. Thank GOD he never chewed anything but a good bone.

I've always had dogs most of them have been 80+ lbs I've mostly had dogs that are 120 the 165. And I try to get dogs that need work because of abuse. I have never been formally trained but I spent a lifetime educating myself. My family often is referred to me as a dog whisperer. I've learned this being laid back and treating your dog like it's another person it's the best way to go with a dog. Not only can they understand complex commands. But they also have no problem understanding multiple commands for the same thing and the same gesture for multiple commands depending on the situation. For example I can be sitting on the couch and my dog can be in the other room I can have my head towards me and he will come. And standing outside with him I can now my head towards the house and he will go in the house. And scolding is the best way to teach your dog is wrong. Treat your dog right love respect and unconditional love. He will spend his days trying to please you and if you inform them by scolding them what displeases you the time to not do it again. If you let them know what it is just calling them about why you explain to them not to do it no more. Whoever the idiot is I thought of ignore the things you don't like and they will stop. probably has a dog with the worst behavior in the world. The dogs doing something wrong and you ignore it because you don't want to address it thinking addressing it will cause him to keep doing it you are 100% incorrect how's you to know if you don't tell him.

My dog just understands whole sentences…he does. Really. Tested it several times. He just does. Even if we are not addressing him directly.

[@byuftbl]

Nah sorry but they don’t. He’s likely just reacting to the key words he knows. Dogs just don’t have the mental capacity to understand sentence structure. They may understand for example if you say “do you want to go on a walk”. They are picking up on the words “walk” and “go” because you likely say it each time before it happens. But they have no idea what “want” or “you” means because these don’t have a physical representation for them to relate with an object or action. People like to think their dog understands sentences just because they can pick up on key words within one.

[@anniemay4547]

Mine the same

[@charlie6411]

so you have said "this is a tennis ball", "this is a toy duck", "see this basket here?"...."I am going to put both the tennis ball and the duck at the other side of the room and I want you to take only the duck and put it in the basket"? If your dog can do this, you have the only dog in the world which can as this has never been demonstrated under test conditions. If I take my dog for a walk and the dog is ahead and there is options for going straight on, or turning right. I say "go right" or sometimes "we are going right". It understands and goes right. Is this because it understood the concept of "go" and "right" separately? Or is it actually a mixture of the specific command and physical language? As humans we weirdly turn right more and tend to take right turning circular walks, I also probably don't say anything alot when taking the straight option as is no change in direction so when I do it likely means right, regardless of what I say. It is easy to mistake understanding from body language and single verbal commands as actually understanding complex sentences.

It depends on the breed, really

[@SysterYster]

Dogs can learn and understand up to 200-something words. They can't speak, but they do understand the meaning of some of the words we say. There's a reason they get happy when you say "walk" or "food" and why some get angry or run away when you say "bath". They know what it means.

[@Hambone571]

Absolutely true. Have 2 GSDs and if we say, wanna treat or where’s your treats, to the laundry they go, (that’s where they are) if I say let’s go outside, Ill say front door or back door and they go to the right door. They know let’s go to the mailbox, and want dinner? So many other words and commands too.

[@lailahepburnandmischka]

Exactly, my dogs go mad hearing 'garden' 'walkies' and 'townage' (my boyfriend says 'townage is it?!?! To them before we go into the city centre lol) They also get excited hearing 'kitchen' Lmao sometimes they like to come to the kitchen and sniff the floor for any crumbs 🤣

@youtube commenter I saw a program about dogs (more than one actually, but whatever). And how is that any sillier than saying a dog doesn't have complex feelings? It's darned pack animals. They need complex feelings to function in a pack. Yet, people say this a lot too. (Maybe because it excuses them to do mean things to their animals?) Also, I've had dogs. They understand quite many words. Many experiments with "talking dog carpets" (or whatever they're called) have been made. The dogs can communicate pretty well for being an animal. You can also search yourself. Also, "up to 200 words" doesn't mean "every single dog knows 200 words". It means some understand way less, but smarter ones can get that many. (Just in case you don't English very well). Dogs have the same level of intelligence as 2-3 year old humans. (They understand about 200 words). Also: "As for language, the average dog can learn 165 words, including signals, and the “super dogs” (those in the top 20 percent of dog intelligence) can learn 250 words, Coren says." So, instead of questioning something you know nothing about, how about educating yourself?

[@SysterYster]

@youtube commenter It's called testing. And science. It's not exactly news. You can find it for yourself. Don't take my word for it. But you're basically saying that any knowledge is silly then? How do we know anything? How do we know how many species there are on earth? How do we know how our brains work? How do we know how many words an average adult human knows? How do we know crows are intelligent? Science, and testing. It's not like it's magic. Besides, you're equally much a silly internet person. You're not special. ;)

Number 23, even if it may seem a bit aggressive, I’ve learned that 1-it’s not but also 2-if another dog corrects certain behaviors especially hyper puppies, they’re setting boundaries and limits. I always believe that the most effective way a dog will learn is from another dog. As for the smell, I can’t tell you how many articles of clothing my little ones grab and haul tush away from me lol, little thief’s. I went out and purchased an actual pair of slippers years ago but they still went for my ratty old ones. Even though afterwards I wore the new ones for a little bit, they much preferred the tattered very well worn ones.

No complex emotions? I thought dogs could feel jalousy, hate and love. So why not guilt?

[@charlie6411]

He said dogs don't understand complex emotions, not dog have physical traits associated with these emotions. All the emotions you list fall into the natural emotion category (if jealousy is roughly same as envy). They are core to evolutionary success. Guilt is described as a self conscious emotion and requires reflection on a past action and empathy to understand how this may have affected others. Dogs don't have complex enough neuron networks to do this. This doesn't mean they won't react to something they have done in a way we associate with guilt. It is more likely fear, or reaction to your body language.

I don't care if my dog doesn't like it. He rolls in the mud, I'm still going to give him a bath every month.

[@PersonianOld]

Giving him a bath every month is not technically "too much" That is how often you should normally give your dog a bath. If you wait too long to give him a bath, he can develop flees. And once those are on your dog, they are a pain in the ass to get rid of. Washing your dog every WEEK is too much In some cases, you can wash your dog extra, like if your dog is an anxiety dog and when she gets scared she tucks her tail under her butt It does not help mu ch that she also has anxiety poop That is fun to clean (Based on a true story)

I disagree with the final part of dogs "not feeling shame" or "not knowing they done something wrong". There were plenty of times where I did arrive my home, acted normally as I would always do, and found my dog hiding on his bed or avoiding being too happy on my arrival. I didn't even knew what was up, got a little confused, and only after I did find poop or piss made in wrong places, or some stuff broken.

[@JayBandersnatch]

Totally agree with you. I have two dogs and can tell which one did what by the way they act. If the dogs were just reacting to how I was acting then both would react "guilty", however only the one who is guilty acts guilty.

[@RicoLen1]

[@StephRae]

He doesn't poop. He usually has found something to eat somewhere. I can tell by his face as soon as I walk in the door. I just go to the usual hiding places and yup. Before I can say anything - he has already "grounded" himself. Don't even know what to do. Never had a dog before. So weird. He is so weird. Eats me out of house and home but he is so darned cute. And he is so afraid of loud noises (daughter got as a stray off the street, lots of trauma) I just hate yelling at him so I just let him stay in his self-imposed exile for a bit. SMH.

[@teddybear_love5883]

No smooches?! When i give my dog one, he always gives me one back and waggs his tail!

[@ChibiMikuHatsune]

I think things like kissing a dogs face really does depend on the dog. My dog at times likes face kisses and will shove her face into yours so you can shower her with affection but other times she pulls away. It's so important to get to know the dog first and read their body language. When my dog was a puppy she almost broke my nose on several occasions from shoving her face into mine during snuggle time.

[@joyl7842]

I agree. My dog loves licking people's faces. I unfortunately do not like it at all.

Dogs, like people are individuals. I know someone who was so happy to see a dog one time, they bent down to kiss the dog, whom they had never met, and the dog bit her on the face. We have two Frenchies and a Scottie that are the kissiest dogs we've ever known. It really depends, I think, on if they see you as a leader of their pack, because that is their family.

A harness is made for dogs to pull, their body has more coverage. So if you put a harness on your (bigger) dogs, they will just pull harder beceause off all the weight they have. And when your dog pulls that hard, maybe you should train your dog better 🤔 Correct the dog a little, so they'll know what is good and what isn't. Just some advice ✌️

[@adelucas4824]

I agree that they pull, but I have three large dogs and the harness is much easier to control than using their collar and it also doesn't put any strain on their necks. Mine only really pull when they are excited for something, like on the way to the park or if they see one of their favourite humans.

I think some of these depend of the dog. One of my dogs loves to be pet/kissed on her head/snout, but her sister doesn't. The one who likes it will even kiss you on your face after you do it to her. My dogs also understand complex phrases. I can say to them "where are you?" "Go find [item/person]" "Do you want to [activity]?" "Let's go to bed/outside" etc. And they understand things perfectly fine. It's about training. Also, some dogs dont mind/like it when kids are all over them. One of my dogs I had when I was little could be told to find me and she would do so, then get down on the ground so I could climb on her back and she'd carry me back to my mom. She was a golden retriever and I was anywhere from 1 to 6 when she would do that. She would also just let me hold her/be all over her and would get upset at people if they pulled me away from her. And one of my current dogs likes to be held while she sleep so she lays under my legs at night.

if a dog tugs hard on his leash, you should never switch to a harness. It will only increase his power when he's trying to put distance between you and him.
