How do I touch my pet dog?
Do you like pet dogs?
If so, you may want to touch softly your dog to express your emotion for it.
If you really love your pet dog, you need to know that dogs have some parts which they don't want to be touched.
As you can see from the picture above, back and waist and chest of dogs are the parts which dogs like being touched.
When you meet a pet dog for the first time, it is good that you touch chest or back and waist of it from the side not front side.
Being touched from unfamiliar person at the front is a kind of war of nerves to dogs.
Do not stretch your arms toward your pet dog as you are standing
That is one of very threatening actions to your dog.
You must sit down and not look at it at the front when you touch it.
Do not stroke its head powerfully
That can make your dog nervous.
Please touch it softly.
Do not touch back regs
That is very rude to your dog.
Do not hug the neck of your dog from behind
When you face your dog, the best position is the side.
Facing it at the front means challenge and approaching from behind can make it surprised.
