Every person in this world who has worked long years with and around animals will tell you how sensitive our animal world is. They feel much more than anyone can even think about.
Reflecting on Experiences with Dogs
Experience with dogs often reveals that they show a real mirror that humans need to look at with grave seriousness.
Being the best pet Nursery in Dubai, while working with rescue organizations and fostering dogs for years shows that dogs coming from streets, farms, or abusive owners, or being abandoned, all carry baggage. Baggage of lack of self-confidence, sadness, fear, lack of trust, and reactive personalities.
The Impact of Changing Leashes
When potential adopters and trainers from the best dog training center in Dubai work with these dogs, the moment the leash changes hands, the dog changes. It may sound dramatic, but this is the truth.
Dogs sense human strength and weakness very clearly. They want assurance that the leash holder is capable enough to take care of them and handle any situation. Confidence and calmness are the two key characteristics that comfort dogs.
Story 1: The Labrador's Transformation
One family’s Labrador, a very good, happy, confident dog with almost zero problems, changed during the COVID-19 pandemic. The family faced challenges like job loss, and the couple decided to separate. The dog, once calm and confident, became depressed and refused his daily walk because he lost confidence in himself and his family.
Story 2: The Red-Zone Dog's Journey
A rescue organization worked with a nearly red-zone dog—extremely reactive and high-energy. After months of training and searching for the right owner, the dog started changing as soon as the leash went to the right person. The dog, now living with his two human baby siblings, has zero reactivity around humans or other dogs and is the best family dog.
The Emotional Pressure on Pets
It’s often seen that when dogs are adopted to fill any void—marriage separation, breaking up relationships, empty nests, or anything else—if owners are not careful about dealing calmly and maturely with their challenges, they unknowingly put a lot of emotional pressure on their pets. High expectations on pets are unhealthy for both the pets and their owners, leading to reactive behaviors in the dogs.
Introspection for Dog Parents
Hundreds of stories show that dog parents should introspect if they suddenly find any attitude change in their dogs. Besides checking the dog’s health, they should also look into themselves to see if anything unusual is going on.
Dogs as Our Mirrors
Dogs are angels in our lives, the best guides we can have. Though we are holding the leash, they are the ones holding the mirror where we can see our real reflection.
At Romis Home Pet Nursery, the best doggy daycare and the one and only crate-free pet nursery in Dubai, we witness these transformations daily. As the best dog in Dubai, we strive to provide a nurturing and supportive environment for all dogs, helping them and their owners lead happier, more balanced lives.
