To solve these worries of dog lovers, the editor has specially organized a few points for everyone as a reference.

Why Dogs Don’t Like You: Have You Done These Few Things?

Boqi Net editor will talk about which behaviors can cause dogs to dislike you.

1)Staring directly at the dog continuously

Sometimes people just think dogs are cute and keep staring at them, but you should understand that this blatant direct gaze makes them uncomfortable and may even make them feel like you are challenging them. If the dog is gentle, it may just look away unwilling to pay attention to you, but if it has a more aggressive personality, then you are in trouble.

2)Making exaggerated gestures in front of the dog

Dogs are generally very wary of strangers, and if you make big, exaggerated movements, you might scare them. Some dogs are naturally this way and once stimulated, they will instinctively attack.

3)Suddenly touching the dog’s head

Although dogs like having their heads petted and will be happy if touched comfortably, only their owners have this right. For strangers, forget it. You should know dogs also care about dignity and won’t let just anyone touch them casually. Therefore, when you see a very cute dog on the street and want to pet its head, it’s best to first put your hand near its nose so it can get familiar with your smell. After it stops being wary of you, then you can pet it freely.

4)Being loud and noisy in front of the dog

Dogs have very sensitive hearing, so loud noises make them scared instinctively, such as firecracker sounds or airplane takeoff noise. Therefore, even when scolding your dog, do not raise your voice too loud or be too noisy, as this easily causes them to develop fear of you.
