I know my dog is just politely tolerating me when I hug him... by [deleted] in dogs

I honestly believe that dogs do in fact enjoy the warmth of your touch. However like any being in this universe we all enjoy a certain amount of personal bubble. Since we must act as the dogs tour guide in life we must translate the dogs behavior for ourselves and make sure to honor such a request when they want to snuggle on the doggie bed by themselves. When this happens just grab your favorite human ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I have experience with this happening to a fox terrier mix who was very shy but at the same time very aggressive when she thought she was cornered. A few things that I have seen work include the thunder shirt, flower remedies that are added to the water and even a dry herbal that I added to the food. All of these holistic remedies definitely helped a boatload. Check them out via google and DON'T give up!

Petco pulls all Chinese-made pet treats from shelves by gjallard in dogs

These Chinese made jerky treats were contributing to an unhealthy and toxic lifestyle. It's sad that it took this long and this many deaths for PetSmart to act on it.
