Dogs Forming Friendships
Tuesday Dec 17, 2024
Tuesday Dec 17, 2024
This week, Jess and Scott discuss dog friendships. Social dogs that seem to enjoy all dogs equally may have dozens of friends. However, dogs with select taste may only have a handful of friends in a lifetime. Some dogs only have one friend and others may live out their entire lives friendless, especially if the dog isn't social. This episode unpacks all the angles.
How can you help select your dog's friends?
Why does a dog's behavior sometimes change when in the presence of friends?
Does daycare foster dog friendships?
