Some owners seem to want their dogs to stop barking, period: a
good dog is a quiet dog, and the only time that barking’s permitted is
when there’s a man in a black balaclava and stripy prison outfit,
clutching a haversack marked ‘Swag’, clambering in through your bedroom
window. Dogs don’t see barking in quite the same light. Your dog has a voice,
just like you do, and she uses it just how you do too: to communicate
something to the people she cares about.

Separation anxiety is one of the most common
problems that dogs develop. It’s an anxiety disorder, and is defined as
a state of intense panic brought on by the dog’s isolation/separation
from her owner(s). In other words: when you leave for work in the morning, your dog is
plunged into a state of nervous anxiety which intensifies extremely
quickly.

A dog is an instinctively aggressive creature. In the wild, aggression
came in very handy: dogs needed aggression to hunt, to defend
themselves from other creatures, and to defend resources such as food,
a place to sleep, and a mate. Selective breeding over the centuries has
minimized and refined this trait significantly, but there’s just no
getting around it: dogs are physically capable of inflicting serious
harm (just look at those teeth!) because that’s how they’ve survived
and evolved. And Mother Nature is pretty wily – it’s hard to counteract
the power of instinct!

The act of chewing seems to be a matter of individual preference among
dogs: some have an innate desire to chew as a pleasurable activity in
itself, and some seem to have no need to chew whatsoever unless they’re
driven to it out of sheer boredom.
