Understand your pets signs -Blog


Listening to your dog is a smart way of knowing things. They know a lot that we may not know. They may not can talk, but trust me they know when something is about to happen and or if it good or not. What better way then to have a fur baby that can sense things before they happen. It’s a blessing in disguise. They will just about let you know every time. Have you ever met people that don’t like dogs? That’s the people you need to watch out for. And you fur baby will let you know who they are. They will warn you when someone is around if your not aware and some will even let you know when you are aware just to let you know. They call themselves helping you. Which they are! I love when my fur babies let me know even if I already know because it makes me feel safe and loved by my babies. Mind you I have 3 beautiful Yorkie Terriers one is a boy and two are girls. I love them dearly ❤️❤️ They are my world and spoiled let me tell you! 🥰

Dogs have a funny way of communicating with us and many of us struggle to understand them. But it's important that we learn to understand them and their behaviors.





As many of you know dogs will follow you every where no matter where it might be. For instance the bathroom they will follow you because that's their way of protecting you at your most vulnerable time. Like when they lead you know they have to use the bathroom they will give you the sign and it's up to you to figure out what it is. But most dogs when they have to go pee the jump up and down and run to the door while turning to face you. Some dogs even look to see if you are out there near them while they are going to the bathroom because they aspect you to do the same for them as they do for you. Many dogs also love baths so they will normally sit in the bathroom waiting for you to walk in. In my case my three little ones enjoy baths and each one knows they take turns meeting me at the tub to get a bath.





When dogs are stressed out it can be pretty much a bomb killer because they will barley do anything. It's up to us to know the signs and recognize them as they show up. Many dogs that suffer depression, anxiety, and anxious need the most attention because it lets them know they are not alone and that everything is okay. Many dogs will lay down and look like they are completely ran down and some eyes will bulge out and you can see the white really good around there eyes. This my friend is very important, and they will need much attention and may even need a vet visit to make sure nothing else is going on. Also some dogs may not eat or drink a lot either. May not be as active as normal. So always take time out of your day to spend with your fur babies. Rather it's going outside and playing ball, or going for a walk. Spending time with them can do a lot of wonders! Trust me! My baby Zelda has anxiety, and she needs attention almost 24/7 a day. To keep her mind off of fear and other things that go on in her mind. She also has a fear of loud noises. Which is why when I walk her I choose a park or road that not many traffic is on. Other words she won't walk either.





You need to also know when your dog is being alert and call themselves being protective. Many will make sure others that are strange to them do not come near you. They can sense 20 times more than we can about a person. Even though they can talk they can warn with a growl, and/or bark. Some even give a calm stare, waiting for the stranger to approach before giving a back up warning. Dogs know who love animals, so always be weary of people out here that say they don't like dogs. Because some are not innocent and that's why, because the dogs knows. Even my three little ones are super protective over me and my husband and mom. They are Yorkie terriers, and they still are a great alarm system. What better way to save money on alarm systems? Right!?





When it comes to play time, believe me when I tell you they will let you know. They will grab a toy and make you play with them. Even when sometimes we are busy doing other things like cooking, cleaning, or just simply working a job form home. They will rub the toy on your lap and hands to make to either throw the toy or play tug. So always have a special time ⌚ out of the day to play with your fur baby.





And last but not least, when time to eat. Dogs will let you know when they are hungry and when they may want a treat. Some will bark, and others will whine to let you know they are hungry. But after time of having your fur baby this and many other signs will come natural to you.





Learning the signs that our pets show us is a great way of communication. As I said early it makes the bond strong between you and your dog. I know every day when getting off work I always prepare myself before entering the door of dogs kisses and jumps up on my legs. The first thing I like to do is greet them and basically freak out in happiness and it makes them go wild!

Having fur babies is just like having kids just they can't talk.
