DOGS ARE MAN’S
BEST FRIEND
BUT
HOW WELL DO
WE REALLY KNOW THEM?
A recent survey carried out by UK
charity Dogs for Good reveals that
almost 90 per cent of dog owners
would like to learn more about what
their dog is thinking and feeling.
It’s well known that dogs are greatly loved
and play a hugely important role in our
lives yet it appears that many owners lack
confidence in understanding how their
beloved companions are thinking and
feeling. This can lead to miscommunication
and result in a series of different emotions
including frustration and guilt on the part of
owners.
The survey sought to find out what advice
and support the nation’s 12 million dog
owners would find most helpful and the
results support the launch of the charity’s
brand new ‘Take the Lead’ campaign.
Dogs for Good’s Take the Lead campaign
that draws on the charity’s expert
understanding of our four-legged friends,
built over many years of training highly
skilled assistance dogs.
