They are man’s best friends after all, and they deserve to have their feelings and emotions recognised and dealt with.
“Understanding a dog’s emotions can be a bit complex since they don’t experience feelings in the same way we do,” says veterinary surgeon Dr. Nick Horniman MRCVS. “But there are clear behaviours that may suggest a dog is feeling guilty or anxious.”“If your dog has done something they might perceive to be wrong, they might avoid making eye contact with you. This can be a sign of submission rather than guilt, with the dog trying to show you that they are not a threat.
For Dr. Horniman, while these viral videos may show the more peculiar signs of dog guilt, they’re not particularly severe. “More extreme behaviours that could be caused by guilt would be engaging in destructive behaviour in front of the owner, or even urinating or defecating indoors. Both of these behaviours would indicate the dog is going through more severe emotional distress,” he adds.“If your dog has done something wrong and is showing signs of feeling guilty, I’d advise against punishing or scolding them – it’s much more productive to focus on positive reinforcement and preventive measures,” Dr.
“However, I would look into the reason as to why your dog is showing the naughty behaviour in the first place. Maybe your dog is bored, hasn’t had enough exercise, has been left alone for too long, wants attention, is stressed or is just a very playful pup. I’d look at what I could change and do differently to see how my dog responds. We need to set them up to succeed rather than fail.
