9. Teasing Them
image source: wmnlife.com
You might find it funny to watch the confused look of your dog when you tease them with a treat or a toy, but it’s not that much fun for your pet.
Teasing your dog by moving their food while they are eating or tugging on their ears or tail can scare your dog as well as make them angry.
It is especially important to teach young children not to tease the dog as they may end up getting bit which will not only traumatize your dog but it could scare your child too.
When your dog does something to deserve getting a treat, try giving it it to them right away and don’t tease them too much.

A lot of these are just common sense (which I know is sadly lacking in some folks) but it all depends on the dog. Besides that, being the incredibly intuitive and sensitive creatures that they are, they will adapt to how you express affection. Our dogs will lick our faces off if we let them, and we kiss their little heads in return.

1 is ALL BS!! 3 is optional, depending on if you talk to you dog and tell them how much you love them. 4 is ALL OUT BS!! WHAT BRAINLESS IDIOT COMES UP WITH THIS?

Dogs love car rides, and of course you shouldn’t give them spoiled food!!! Most of these are common sense, but we know dogs have more common sense than most people!!!
