Understanding
Dogs
“My dog understands every word I
say . . .” You may well have heard a
devoted owner talk about his dog in this
way—but how true is it? Dogs are good at
tuning into human feelings and they are
very clever at reading our body language,
but we should also make some effort to
understand our dogs and see the world
through their eyes.
Dogs understand
human emotion,
says study.
