Do dogs like it when you talk to them?
Talking to your dog may seem one-sided, but you don't need a verbal response to know that talking to your furry best friend is a good idea. No matter how silly you think talking to your dog sounds, initiating a c
onversation while you're out walking, snuggling on the couch, or preparing dinner has benefits you probably don't know about.
Yes, your neighbor may think you're crazy, but if they have a dog, they probably do that too! In fact, although not all dog owners will admit it, most people with good relationships with their pets find it natural to start conversations with their dogs.
If that sounds like you, keep up the good work. And if you are hesitant to start the conversation, don't be shy, dogs like it when you talk to them! Especially when it's your puppy, so here are some reasons why it's important to talk to your dog on a daily basis.
The bond between a person and their dog is a powerful thing. The potential for a relationship based on mutual love and respect is one of the main reasons why people adopt dogs in the first place. Anything that strengthens that bond is something dog parents should be interested in. Some dogs open their hearts after the first belly rub, but a real and lasting bond will take time and effort. Your dog needs to feel perfectly comfortable around you, and part of that is being accustomed to hearing your voice.
Telling your dog about your day is good, but it's even better to talk to him about things he can relate to and understand.
The answer to our original question is a big yes, dogs like it when you talk to them! So the next time your neighbor catches you excitedly talking to your dog, start telling him these facts to gently inform him about the benefits of talking to dogs.
