Dogs are the most common household pets throughout the world adash; for some, it.squo;s an excitable Yorkshire terrier, for others an attentive Labrador retriever. But we can deepen that bond by accurately understanding what they squo;re trying to communicate. While we humans mostly rely on words to express how we feel, dogs mainly talk to us, and each other, through a series of facial expressions, body language and non-verbal noises. If we want to really bond with our much-loved pets, we need to understand what theygsquo;re trying to tell us with that tail wag, hard stare, or when they squo;re destroying our favourite pair of shoes.
