Are you superstitious?
⠀
Or maybe you have some “lucky” items that will surely bring you success?
⠀
It might be a surprise, but people are not the only ones to believe in superstitions. Our four-legged friends do too!
⠀
Moreover, their lives are often based on these superstitions.
How? Let’s see!
⠀
🐶The owner is putting on a suit? Expect some alone-time, probably for the whole working day.
The owner took some old jeans out of the closet? A walk in the park is about to follow!
⠀
🌟Did the human prepare a ball? Get ready for a training session!
⠀
3 huge bags are all packed and ready to go somewhere? The situation says: time for a trip!
⠀
There are so many superstitions in our dogs’ lives.
And the majority of them really end up coming true.
⠀
Dogs are very attentive. They notice even the smallest things we do that we might not even notice ourselves.
⠀
✨One dog owner shared her story about it with us. For the longest time she couldn’t explain how her dog guessed that they were about to go for a walk. Her dog was already sitting next to the door waiting, when she had only barely thought about going and hadn’t even started getting ready. Sorcery, no less, right?
⠀
But then she did some thinking and realized that every time before starting to get ready for a walk, she briefly looks out the window overlooking the garden. This was a tiny, completely subconscious action. But for her dog, it became a tell-tale sign that it’s time to wait at the door.
⠀
These superstitions (or rituals) are very important for our dogs. This is because they bring predictability into their lives, and hence, also peace and security.
⠀
Plus, isn’t it convenient? Any dog owner can create their own ritual (superstition), knowing their dog’s ability to react to them. 🐾

Does your pup believe in any superstitions? 😊 Do you?👇
