Does your dog need to say hello to everyone? It’s very sweet, but it can cause issues for the person or canine on the receiving end. Most dogs are social animals, and greetings, to most dogs, are near the top of the dog life enjoyment pyramid. Just imagine the thought bubbles over their smiling faces “Yessss! You came home from work!”, “Oooh, a new friend at the door for me to play with!”, “Ah – a new doggie friend is walking toward me at the park!” You can actually see the excitement brewing.
