We all like dogs and we all want dogs to feel the same way about us. Sometimes, dogs do not feel the same way that we feel about them, and that could be frustrating to many dog lovers. If you are wondering how to get dogs to like you, Spot Pet Insurance has got you covered. Continue reading below to learn more.
What to Do If a Dog Doesn’t Like You
If a dog does not like you, there are some things that you can do to win their favor. The first thing that we stress is that you need to pay close attention to your dog’s body language. You need to make sure that you are vigilant of signs of fear and discomfort like a tucked tail, pinned ears, and eye contact avoidance. If a dog is noticeably scared, you should make sure to give it space. Once the dog is in a better headspace, you can begin to do things to bond with it. Some of the best ways that you can bond with your dog include:
Spending quality time together like walking and playing
Being present with your dog - just being around your dog will help you gain favor with it
Building positive associations of yourself with your dog by giving it treats
What Gets a Dog To Fall in Love With You?
A dog will “fall in love” with its owner inevitably if the owner is committed to providing a nice life for it. As mentioned above, the best way that people can get a dog to “fall in love” with them is to provide them with quality time and positive associations.
How Do You Build a Strong Bond With Your Dog?
To build a strong bond with a dog, you need to make sure that you and your dog are doing activities together. Whether this be something active like walks in the park or something like relaxing at home, spending time with your dog is the best way to begin forming a bond. Another way that you can build a bond with your dog is to spend idle time with it at home. In this way, dogs are very similar to humans in that the more time they spend with someone, the more of a bond they form.
