How do I Change My Personality when I started to Share my Life with a Dog?

"Coexistence with him has changed my life", is one of the phrases we usually hear from people who have decided to adopt a dog.

Indeed the fact of living with a dog changes our lives ... and in part, the character.

Because their behavior is incredible ... from them we learn many lessons that make us happier and better people.

The relationship with a dog can make you more flexible and change priorities, just by observing your behavior.

From them we learn how useless it is to constantly worry about things, apparently important, but that over time we understand that they were not so important.

With a puppy running around the house, we may stop being so narcissistic and act with more empathy towards others.

You realize that the four-legged animal, which now occupies an important place in your life, feels happy with very little.

This being that leaves you neither in the sun nor in the shade, is a master when it comes to relaxing.

Observe and learn from your dog, is an expert in emotional intelligence and has many instructions to give you.

10 canine master classes for humans

1. Love and loyalty without conditions

Dogs are faithful, protective and affectionate by nature.

With them we will always know what to expect, because they want us above all things and do not disappoint us at any time.

Is not that true with humans?

Our furry ones are not prejudiced when it comes to showing their affection.

You will always have them by your side, to enjoy your company or comfort you in sad moments.

Nor will they be uncouth when it comes to receiving our caresses; on the contrary, they love the displays of affection.

This is called good character, and the rest is nonsense.

2. Joy and enthusiasm as a series.

With your example, a dog can become an excellent coaching, capable of stimulating our personal potential.

You can only see the enthusiasm they show for everything they do.

When they see us take the leash, they are already jumping for joy through the daily walk

In the park, they are always willing to participate in the games we propose.

Boredom? They do not understand the meaning of this word.

For them, every day is special and they squeeze it to the maximum.

They are not tormented by things that do not happen, they live and enjoy the present, without more.

They value and appreciate the fact of having a house, food and good company.

Copy your example and give thanks every day for the little details.

3. Leave the grudge

If you think that resentment is inevitable, watch your dog closely and learn from it.

Have you arrived late from work and left you a lot of time alone? It is possible that your dog has done some trick at home, such as tearing a cushion or biting your children's favorite stuffed animal ... But, keep in mind that you do not do it because you are offended and want revenge. Their antics are the result of boredom or separation anxiety.

Remember that dogs are not spiteful, they do not waste time like us, in supposed offenses.

They focus on the really important things, such as eating, exercising, enjoying the relationship and affection of human congeners ...

Let us, like them, take control of our lives without the burden of destructive grudges.

4. Imagination to power!

To be happy today it seems that you have to buy many things, and like more better.

If your dog spoke-which he does with gestures-I would tell you that you will stop obsessing with objects and that you will let your imagination fly.

Since to live with joy, you just have to have imagination; Enough, to have fun with a stick.

Gifts do not always have to be material ... a few caresses or a long walk in the mountains, they are priceless ... and you know it.

5. Confidence in oneself

It is curious the confidence that the dogs show in themselves.

On the other hand, to humans, what others think of us influences us and conditions us when we really show ourselves as we are.

Your dog is not tormented by these dilemmas. The "what they will say" matters little to them. They are pure, genuine, without cheating or cardboard.

They do not live to impress others or to look good, they are simply, they live, they enjoy and they feel safe when they want and are loved.

6. Equality, fraternity and open mind.

When dogs have socialized correctly, it is a pleasure to check their brotherly behavior towards their peers. You only have to see them running in the park .. they play together, without discrimination.

They do not care about the race; or that there are smaller or larger colleagues; neither color influences them; nor are they surprised when someone lacks a queue or a queue. Poor or rich, for a dog, all his fellows are his friends.

His mind is open and they show it by accepting all the colleagues who want to have fun with them.

And there is still more: these feelings of fraternity extend to other species, such as cats, with which they can establish extraordinary relationships of friendship and affection.

7. Know how to take care of yourself

If you have a dog at home, you will not need the advertising messages that encourage you to relax, take care of yourself and pamper yourself.

Watch carefully ... Notice that your hairy, even though he is very nervous, always has time to carry out some physical routines, such as stretching or waking up.

Follow their example and look for time in your daily routine to take care of yourself as you deserve.

Stretching, yoga, meditation ... choose your favorite activity and concentrate on it as you deserve.

8. Total and vital relaxation

Relaxation is sacred for dogs. Without rest, it would be impossible for them to be so active.

Whatever your schedule, you always know how to find a moment to stretch, nap and recharge your energy.

Do not you have time for a half-day nap?

Do not you remember when it was the last time you relaxed on the couch, reading a book or letting your imagination run wild?

Ja excuses are not ...

Take good note and learn from your dog ... he does know!

9. Fun without prejudice

It is amazing the ability of dogs to enjoy every moment, regardless of whether they make a fool of themselves or not.

Somehow, they intuit that with shame they do not eat and they take advantage of every opportunity to do all the antics that they enjoy so much.

The just nonsense? They do them spontaneously and they are not controlling all the time.

If they want to wallow in the grass, they wallow and so happy. They do not let these "obstacles" make them bitter for the day, on the contrary they see it as fun.

10. Curiosity for the world around them

How many things people miss out of lack of curiosity! Dogs, on the other hand, do not miss a single one, they are always attentive to what is happening around them.

A simple paper moving a windy day, already attracts them powerfully and they do not stop persecuting it in their eagerness of exploration and play.

Nor do they miss the multiple sounds and noises of the street, noises that for us go unnoticed.

The flight of a bird or the walking of an ant can arouse their infinite curiosity.

And, when it comes to your nose, be careful! They are expert explorers, able to discover bones and "treasures" hidden in the most recondite places.

To finish ... Do not you think the world would be a little better if we learned to marvel at the little details? Take advantage of the teachings of those who know. Follow your example of your hairy teacher and enjoy!
