5 Ways You Are Making Your Dog Hate You

Dogs are one of the most loyal animals on the planet. They love their humans unconditionally, and are always happy to see us. However, there are a few things owners do that can make their dogs hate them. 

Dogs are known as “man’s best buddy” for a reason. They are loving, loyal and are always happy when they see us. But there are some things we do that unknowingly make our dogs hate us. 

Listed below are the most common ways we drive our dogs crazy, and how to avoid them.

1. Leaving Them Alone for Too Long

Dogs are social animals and need interaction with their humans. When we leave them alone for too long, they get bored and start to misbehave. They may bark incessantly, chew on furniture, or even eliminate in the house.

2. Not Giving Them Enough Exercise

A dog that isn’t getting enough exercise is a frustrated dog. They’re more likely to misbehave, and they’ll often bark and act out their frustration by chewing on furniture, or even by eating their own feces.

3. Not Feeding Them Enough

Dogs don’t always know when they’re hungry or when they’re full. Like all animals, they need their basic nutrition. They grow and develop, and need to eat to do that. If you feed them too little, they’ll end up gaining weight, and they’ll look and act unhappy.

4. Giving Them Bad Food

Dogs are carnivores. They need meat to grow and develop properly. If you feed them bad meat, they’ll end up having digestive problems, and they’ll look and act unhappy.

5. Not Giving Them Enough Attention

Dogs are social animals, and they love to be around people. If you don’t spend enough time with them, they’ll get bored and misbehave. They may bark incessantly, chew on furniture, or even eat their own feces.
