does a dog know

Subject: does a dog know Mon Mar 16, 2009 3:12 pm

when im out walking fred he can pass loads of people... little kids, he cant help but have a sniff at and a possible lick of the face if theyre close enough :2431:

but everybody else he ignores.....except the odd one or two, and these are normally people who are or look like alky's or druggies, can fred detect these people? its weird, we were out earlier and we were towards a scruffy looking blok, and as we went past him, the bloke never looked at him or said anything, fred barked at him, just one loud bark then we walked past someone else and he ignored them :thinking:

Bryn does this sort of thing all the time, a lot of people he is aloof with when we are out, but the odd one he will stand and stare and bark :thinking: don't know why, one was the local mp :2445:

Tilly is very wary of handicapped people
i don't know why but she stares at them if they walk differantly than anyone else :thinking:

also men walking behind us she hates it

but thats because we were chased by a flasher a couple of years ago :2431:
