10 Myths About Dogs

[SwordfishMining]

Dogs have been man’s best friend for centuries, and I’m willing to bet some of the dog myths on this list have been around for just as long. Some are innocent inaccuracies, but they can also lead to harmful misunderstandings. No one is quite sure how they got started, but for one reason or another, these falsities have turned into common knowledge. Thanks to veterinary scientists and animal behaviorists, we now have the evidence to debunk these myths for good.

We all know stranger danger is a real thing, but why do some dogs take this warning to the extreme? They bark and carry on whenever an unfamiliar person either walks in their direction or looks their way. Some dogs do it while out on walks, through a fence, or even from behind the living room window. There’s something about seeing strangers that riles them up. Before you can think about changing your dog’s behavior, you have to understand why dogs bark at strangers in the first place.
