doggiedrawings:NAVIGATING CONSENT “Consent is so important, and often becomes a mess because communication is dismissed or misunderstood. That goes for all species!” - Grisha StewartOne of the significant reasons for learning dog body language is so that we can have a two-way conversation with our dogs. So that we can listen to them (and understand them) and check our own behavior.Dog body language is a conversation, not an observation. It is not a body part (eg. a tail) doing a thing and meaning something. Dog body language is never static. It is fluid and shaped by context. As I reiterate in my book, we always need to look at the whole body, the context, and what is normal/not normal for the individual dog. There is a back and forth relationship between how we feel and the environment/situation/company we are in.Yesterday’s wonderful two-hour Doggie Language webinar with three animal behavior experts - Grisha Stewart, Kathy Sdao, and Chirag Patel - is now online and viewable to everyone who has registered! We looked at dog videos in slow motion and there was so much to discuss that there will be a Part 2! (yay!)
