Trust Earned
Have you ever been told 'You learn something new everyday'? Well it's very true. Today I learned that when a pitbull gives you there back that means that they have trust in you. I was told by my uncle today. We were in the living room and I was sitting on the floor, Boomer came and sat next to me with his back to my face. When my uncle said "Did you know that when a dog gives you there back that means they have trust and confidence in you?" For some reason that really got me thinking because me as a human, I know that when I trust someone I open up to them. So I found it pretty fascinating to see what ways a dog communicates with humans. I decided to go on the internet and look more into it. I went on a website called "www.canidae.com" where I read "If your dog is giving you his back this is a sign of his trust that you have earned from him." Its so interesting to see the way animals try and communicate with us, to me that is so engaging. Just to know that us humans have our own way of communicating with one another. Its shocking how all the things they do is a way of trying to communicate but we don't really pay attention to any of it or seem to notice it.

I also find that really interesting. This reminded me of dogs I've had before and I find it amazing that they have their own way of communicating with us and each other. I look forward to reading more about your Pitbull.
ReplyDeleteI'm a dog lover and I never knew about this. I feel like dogs are friends that do anything to make us smile, and now knowing that dogs turn their backs as a symbol of trust surprises me. Have you always given your pitbull so much attention before?
ReplyDeleteI think it's pretty sad how dogs try to communicate to us in various ways but unfortunately we do not understand what they are trying to tell us! Or how sometimes they do not understand us! But it's the actions and thoughts that count, right?
ReplyDeleteI too, have learned something from reading your blog. I didn't know that about them. Maybe I'll think about that more as I observe my cousin's dog. Amazing blog by the way, I love seeing other blogs about dogs because they are just interesting animals to me and it's cool to see other peoples attempt on noting actions of a dog.
