Head over to our website for the latest doggy behaviour advice video, where we talk about leg cocking and how it’s related to one of our favourite topics – dogs sniffing.
There are many myths around why dogs cock their legs
This week’s Down Dog Digestible is all about leg cocking.
There are so many myths around about this behaviour. It’s not fully related to age, although many dogs start to do this behaviour around adolescence, both males and females can do it, and there may be some social learning involved.
We also bust some myths about neutering and leg cocking and we talk about some reasons why dogs do this behaviour – you won’t be surprised to find out that much of this is do with scent.
How is dogs’ leg cocking linked to dogs sniffing?
We also talk about the different ways dogs sniff. Watch your dogs – you’ll be amazed what you might see!
You can find today’s Digestible here along with all the others from previous weeks.
Please do write in and ask if you have a question you’d love us to answer. I want to make sure these Digestibles answer any doggy queries you have.
Enjoy!
Keep safe,
Carol
