Pet World: Dogs may sense your unease, but that doesn’t cause aggression
By Cathy M. Rosenthal, Tribune Content Agency
Dear Cathy,
Can a dog tell if you're scared of them? I have been attacked and bitten by two dogs. One of which I ended up in the hospital. I love dogs, but I am very nervous of large dogs. My daughter says that a dog can tell by your scent if you're nervous with him. Just last week, I was with three other people when a neighbor came by with his dog. The dog had no problem with them but when I went to pet the dog, it started to bark and lunge at me so violently that my neighbor had to leave. He said he didn't understand why the dog was so hostile towards me. Is it true that a dog can tell if you're uneasy with them?
