Funny…I was just conversing with a neighbor last night about the incredible focus dogs can have. His puppy (yes, a puppy!!) was so intent on what she was watching, even her body language and stance spelled “focus”. Amazing, what we can learn just from watching them.
I love your thought about how they’re so “in the moment”. So true.

I worked really hard with getting BD not to react when he saw a cat. He wouldn’t act aggressively more wimper and if they took off then would try to chase them. I worked very hard on trying to get him out of this, and was so pleased when one day we walked past a cat without any reaction.

Then I found out the ex has let BD chase cats. I am still fuming about it as not only do I think it is incredibly cruel but poor BD doesn’t know what the ‘rules’ are so it’s making it harder for him too.

Now you have Mom thinking and also thinking she should read that book. You are right, though and that is quite interesting to Mom.

Dogs (and cats) are able to detect dangers far beyond our ability. A simple couch may turn into a blood sucking ghoul from one minute to the next, necessitating the removal of the evil presence in the couch.

I would definitely say that smells have a big effect on my dogs. Walking the same route everyday can elicit a different reaction each time depending on what wildlife has wondered by earlier. It also makes the leash a necessity. If it’s the scent of the fox, my dogs are gone!

I guess I haven’t noticed that too much. I never really know how they will react to other dogs, new or old friends. But usually, they seem pretty much the same.

Just this morning (5:30 a.m.) we saw a dog that normally makes my dog go crazy. Thankfully I was able to keep her calm with treats. But I think it was actually the crushing humidity that made her decide that expending all that crazy energy wasn’t worth it.
