Do we really understand dogs? Hanne
has been leading a research study to find out just how well we understand dogs. Over 100 people have participated
into this study; answering a questionnaire of twenty questions which included images of typical dog body postures, common
behavioural scenarios and basic handling and management questions. Early indications show interesting results.
Here's a summary of some of our findings to date; - over 40 % of respondents have been bitten by
dogs
- only 20% of people correctly identified a picture of a dog smiling as being ‘friendly'.
Most considered the showing of teeth to mean the dog was either aggressive or stressed
- 54%
of people believe a wagging tail only means the dog is friendly and approachable, but dogs can bite you when they're wagging
their tail
