We present some common myths and misinterpretations about dog breeds. This short list covers some characteristics of these canine companions.
1. Dogs don’t see the world in black and white. Dogs can differentiate between shades of blue and yellow but struggle with green and red.
2. It is incorrect to say that a well-trained dog will never bite. Any dog could bite if they are feeling fearful, frustrated, or even pressured. It is a common misunderstanding that all dogs are natural swimmers. Not all dogs enjoy being in the water, also, it is common knowledge that almost all dogs are domestic and friendly, but most dogs are deadly and found aggressive.
3. Investigations have found that while older dogs may take longer to learn new tricks, it is certainly not impossible.
4. A dog wagging its tail does not always mean that it is feeling happy. Dogs also wag their tails when they are feeling nervous, threatened or uncomfortable with their surroundings.
5. Dogs know when they do something wrong, and the guilt shows on their faces.
6. Human foods are safe for dogs.
7. Dogs eat grass when they are sick, and this acts as a medicinal process for them.
