Friendly reminder: your sweet fur baby is also a predator‼️
Yes, it’s taken years of evolution and selective breeding to get that silly, approachable demeanor but don’t mistake their foundational DNA.
Your cute pup descends from wolves (or a common ancestor 🤷🏻♂️).
Most of the time dogs are so easy to live with that people forget what they actually are. They sleep on the couch. They wear sweaters. They play with kids.
And then one day the dog guards something or redirects on somebody and everyone acts like it came from another universe.
Reality check: it came from the dog. It was always there.
That’s why I always tell my clients to respect their dog for what it is. Not out of fear, but respect. It makes for safer interactions and safer houses.
