086 How Dog’s Behavior Reflects Our Emotions & All the Reasons That Cats Groom Themselves.

In today’s creature feature -three stories from England about cats bringing presents home to their humans – but not the dead rodents you would normally expect. Sometimes felines hunt out and capture more people friendly things. Does your dog ever have times where they behave in uncharacteristic ways like acting all hyper and crazy, other times, becoming mopey and rather sad looking or even taking up a bad habit that no amount of training seems to be able to stop? Can't figure out for the life of you what is going on in the dog’s mind? Today, you'll hear that the reason for your pet’s behavior may have nothing to do with its mind but has everything to do with your emotions. In a posthumous conversation, Kevin Behan , veteran dog trainer and author of the book, “Your Dog is Your Mirror, The Emotional Capacity of Our dogs and Ourselves,” talks about the startling and radial new way of understanding your dog that can explain why dogs act out at times. The answer is as close as your own heart and emotions. I think this will surprise you. Have you ever wondered why your cat spends so much time licking and grooming themselves? Of course, you know cats clean themselves this way, but they still seem to continue and repeat this a lot even after they are spotless. Why? Turns out there are other benefits for all that attention to their fur coats. I’ll explain them in this segment. We’d love to hear your comments.
