你欠狗狗的五個誤解，道歉了嗎？

原標題：你欠狗狗的五個誤解，道歉了嗎？

朋友們，你們養過狗狗嗎？

有一天如果它突然消失了，會不會像零家妹子一樣哭，難過地不敢再養狗狗了。狗，雖然是動物，卻很有靈性，它會讀懂主人的情緒，會安慰，會跟隨，會保護，會愛你，只是表達的方式和我們人類不一樣。

大概，這也是我們喜歡狗狗的原因吧。

在和狗狗相處的時候，和人類相處一樣，會生氣，會誤解，會難過，會心疼，那你知道我們人類對汪星人的五大誤解有哪些嗎？看看有沒有哪一條是你中招的呢?

Myth#1:Dogs always enjoy common human physical displays of affection.

誤解1：狗狗總是享受人類表達感情的舉動。

Humans often show their affection for others by hugging and cuddling them.

人類通過擁抱和摟抱表達感情。

Dogs simply do not have the limbs and joints to achieve this and so have not evolved to give each other a loving squeeze.

然而，狗沒有進化出相應的肢體結構。

When embraced by humans,many can find this uncomfortable or threatening.The same goes for patting dogs on the head.

因此，被人類擁抱時，它們常常感到不適或受威脅。拍打狗狗腦袋也是同樣的道理。

Myth#2:Barking and growling dogs are always threatening or dangerous.

誤解2：叫喚或怒吠的狗一定具有威脅性或很危險。

These are distance-increasing behaviors.The dogs using these signals are chiefly trying to buy space so they can feel safer.

它們之所以叫喚，主要是為了獲得更多空間，讓自己擁有安全感。

All dogs,regardless of their temperament or training,can at times want more space.

無論性情如何，無論是否受過訓練，任何狗狗在有些時候都想要有更多的空間。

They usually try more subtle signalling first,but many dogs learn that subtle signals don"t work and go straight for shouting.

它們通常會先嘗試微妙的暗示。不過，很多狗狗知道暗示沒用，所以就直接叫喚了。

Myth#3:Dogs will welcome unfamiliar dogs to their home.

誤解3：狗會歡迎陌生狗來家裡。

Dogs evolved from wolves and are therefore primed to defend what is theirs.

狗從狼演化而來，因此防禦性非常強。

They have an attachment to their home territory and the resources within it.

它們對自家地盤和內部資源具有依戀性。

Dogs have no way of knowing that the dogs and human we invite around to our home,for example for a play-date,are ever going to leave.They can be forgiven for thinking that this is the way it is going to be from here on.

它們不知道我們邀請來的狗狗和客人聚會結束後會離開，很可能以為他們會永遠待在此地。

So it is to be expected that they will often try to lay out the local ground-rules and put the new arrivals in their place.

因此，它們常常會施展地盤法則，不讓新來者「入侵」。

Myth#4:An effusive dog is a friendly dog.

誤解4：「熱情洋溢」的狗是友好的狗。

"Friendly" for one dog is not friendly for all dogs,and some dogs use excessive friendliness as a way to alleviate anxiety associated with meeting another dog or human.

狗狗們表示友好的方式不全都一樣。有些狗狗會表現出過分的熱情，以緩解和其它狗或人見面的焦慮。

Owners of very friendly dogs may be surprised when every other dog does not cheerfully receive their dog.Some dogs prefer sedate greetings,and lots of personal space.

一些非常友好的狗狗的主人在其他狗狗沒有表現出同樣的友好時會感到吃驚。其實，有些狗狗喜歡沉著冷靜的打招呼方式和大量的私密空間。

Myth#5: Dogs approach when they want to engage playfully.

誤解5：狗接近對方，是想一起玩耍。

Sometimes owners are confused when a dog approaches a human or another dog in a friendly fashion and then growls or snaps at them.

有時候，狗狗會以友好姿態接近其它狗或人，然後卻開始咆哮或猛咬。這讓一些主人感到很迷惑。

These dogs may be motivated to approach chiefly to gain information,rather than to interact,and some may like strangers in principle,but nevertheless become anxious and overwhelmed all of a sudden.

它們之所以接近對方，主要是為了獲取信息，而非交流互動。有些狗也許喜歡陌生人，但會突然感到焦慮或不知所措。

If you are seeing this,call your dog away from new dogs and humans after a couple of seconds.

如果你看到這種現象，就趕緊把狗叫回來。

要是以上所談到的五個誤解，你們有犯過其中一個，從現在開始試著重新認識你們的寵狗兒~不要讓這些誤解疏離了你們的感情哦。
