Bichon Frise: Communicating with You

“When a dog wags her tail and barks at the same time, how do you know which end to believe?”- Anonymous

When your Bichon Frise is communicating with you he/she is usually doing so with a particular behavior used in a specific situation. You probably already recognize your pet’s “there’s someone at the door” bark from his excited “let’s play” bark. You also identify the running to greet you at the door behavior from the slinking under the desk or crate move too. You’re probably already responsive to your dog’s tone, vocalizations and accompanying behaviors. So you’re already listening to what your Bichon Frise is telling you.  Now when your pet acts in a way that’s out of character for them and in a way that you’re not used too then you can bet your booties that something’s up. Your doggy is probably trying to communicate something to you that’s out of the ordinary. By being alert and responsive you can learn to read what your pet’s trying to tell you.

The psychic connection…

Your Bichon Frise’s psychic abilities are probably more developed than your own. Animals have a sixth sense and pick up on things that we’ve lost the ability to recognize. Remember Lassie continually saving Timmy in the well? Well Lassie wasn’t the exception to the rule. There are countless examples of pets saving their owners lives and alerting them to potential dangers. Pay attention to your dog and try to determine what he/she is trying to tell you.
