TC 218: Dogma - Things Humans Do that Dogs Hate

In this episode of the Transformation Cafe podcast Robin Masiewicz and her guests discuss what research has revealed about our best friends – our dogs! Turns out that Fido may not love it when you hug him and pat him on the head!

Of course not every dog is the same. . . some dogs seem to love to be cuddled, while others shy away when you try to hold them. Robin also shares a story about how her dog Shadow was such a good judge of character.

For more on this subject, check out this article from Mother Nature News. Do you agree with the author’s comparison between dogs and humans?

“The Other End of the Leash: Why We Do What We Do Around Dogs” – Professional behaviorist and trainer Patricia B. McConnell goes into excellent detail about the species differences between primates and canids and why dogs don’t appreciate our hugs, as well as many other great ways of understanding a dog’s perspective about the world.
