My pup is probably one on the most whackiest and hyper pet one can have. He became a part of my family a little over ten years ago but he still has his personality. In other terms, age has not given him any sought of maturity.
I don’t know if science would back me, but according to me he understands emotions. I think the first time I realized this was when I was upset one day and he abandoned his usual crazy zoomies and chose to just calmly come and sit in my lap. And just like that the world became a better place.
So when I think about something I wished he could understand is probably the word “Danger”. He generally timid but he was also the one that was hitting around a baby Cobra when he was just a pup. I screamed on the top of my voice but he kept going at it. I had to run the other way around and sit on the ground to have him abandon his opponent and come away. He is the one that would go into danger if it would keep me out of it. But sometimes, I just want to yell danger and I wish he would just run away from it with me.
But that is pets for you. They understand love, anger, sadness.. but when you expect them to understand danger they would gladly chose to ignore it as long as they can keep you safe.
