aronoiiel Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 This video is an excellent example how a dog shows signs of stress around a child. To someone who is not in tune with dog behavior the dog seems curious and protective of the child. I love how she breaks down the behavior to what it is truly representing which is a distinct discomfort and potential danger situation to the child if this lady wasnt so in tune with the dog. Everyone with both dogs and kids should see this. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Very good. However another possible interpretation is that Parker was guarding the baby. Unsure of the uncle and his ability to look after the child. and while individually the uncle and parker may get on fine together the dog doesn't trust the Uncle with the child, and so is nervous when the Uncle handles the child.

Removed #5 Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Very good video, and I like that she explains as she's going along what it is that is uncomfortable - and it's real obvious that Parker isn't "fine" with the baby, but very good about controlling his own nervousness. Good dog!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterchillz Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Interesting video indeed! I also see it as a good source of knowledge as a dog would probably behave the same way when it's nervous with other people too, so it will be much easier to locate if there's trouble. Thanks for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asslinn Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Whoa that's interesting thank you, thought the signs would be more obvious for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goingsolo Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Interesting viewing, we had a dog when kids were little who could behave like this with a neighbours child because he would poke af her. So would remove her from room if he around. Never left kids sherry alone either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
