Can dogs walk like humans? What to Know

Tug and Drag

A well-trained dog won’t tug and drag you in every direction or refuse to move when you are out walking together, but from their point of view a well-trained human will automatically know which way they want to go and head in that direction without them having to tug. Get it straight. If they could talk they would probably say something like “Hey, if you were doing your job right in the first place, tugging wouldn’t ever be an issue.” It is really simple. Just go where I want and anticipate my every step. I’m not unreasonable.” Enough episodes of sore arms and shoulders should be enough for you to get it right. “Come!”

Anticipation

Say the word “walk” and chances are your dog has learned to associate that particular word with the very fun activity of going exploring outside. Their ears lift, their tail wags and they may jump around in anticipation, barely able to sit still long enough to get the leash put on. Their excitement inevitably makes you smile and be happy to go with them. See – they just rewarded you. Now who is training who, you say? “Very good!”
