When you take your dog out for a walk, you will inevitably encounter "parents" who are out walking their dog at the same time. Dogs that are more friendly will say hello to each other politely and play happily for a while.

Some dogs that are less courageous may start to get scared when they see them from a distance. They will tremble behind their owners and bark at them non-stop.

At this time, people will find that some small dogs often bark more fiercely than large dogs. As long as their owners are around them, they will bark non-stop.

Why are small dogs so "ferocious"?

​First of all, this is the result of artificial selection. A long time ago, people kept dogs to guard their homes and homes, so they would choose dogs that were large and docile.

Slowly, large dogs will become gentler and friendly to people, and many of them will become trustworthy working dogs. As today's pet dogs, small dogs have a somewhat "wild" personality.

Due to their size differences, small dogs are particularly “confident” and insecure in front of big dogs.

Imagine that there is a person standing in front of you who weighs seven or eight times you, is not as tall as you, has longer legs, and looks difficult to get along with. Aren't you afraid?

In order to defend themselves, they can only make themselves a little more fierce, and then a little more fierce, hoping to scare away the "opponent" in their eyes.

That is the legendary "bluffing". Large dogs are generally very confident and do not need to bark to show their presence.

Owners will also pamper small dogs more. Once they encounter any danger, they will immediately pick them up to comfort them. Over time, these dogs become "fearless".

They will even take the initiative to provoke large dogs. These particularly "ferocious" puppies are all petted by their owners.

These parents should pay more attention to stop the dog in time once it behaves provocatively to prevent the big dog from being provoked into aggressive behavior.

The most important thing is to wear a leash when going out! Don't let it run freely just because it is small and doesn't bite, and it will be attacked for provoking a large dog.
