25. Petting Them Too Hard

Oof, ouch, ow. Some dogs a hardier than others, but it still isn’t fun to be roughed up when you’re getting pet. If you’ve ever had something muss up your hair or give you too hard of a squeeze when they’re hugging you, then you know just how your dog feels.
Only your dog doesn’t have the language to tell you that what you’re doing is uncomfortable! They might wiggle away, or avoid you when they see you coming for a pat. Be aware of your dog’s body language.
Nobody likes to get pet too hard, especially not your pup. This goes double for dogs who are smaller than you by a few hundred pounds!
