This should also be a question that many people have. Why do dogs like to chase people’s heels and bite them? Let’s continue reading~.

1. Hunting instinct

If you seriously trace back to the earliest days of dogs, they were not human pets at that time, but were self-reliant like wolves and had hunting instincts. Therefore, when dogs play with their companions, it can be found that they like to perform the action of "quickly sprinting ---> pounce on each other"; because of this instinct, dogs will also use the owner's heels as a contact object when they are young. As soon as the heel moves, Xiao Wang will enter the simulation state.

Although it is instinctive, you still need to be educated from an early age to say "no" to your dog

2. Lack of self-confidence

Some dogs that lack self-confidence and are smaller in size will "strike first to gain advantage" in order to increase their momentum. Rather than facing off head-on, these dogs will choose to attack from behind and adopt guerrilla tactics of bite and run.

Faced with such a dog, the owner should always encourage the dog and help it build self-confidence~

3. Be alert

When a guest comes to your home, some dogs will go around behind the guest's heels, open their mouths and bite down, sometimes lightly and sometimes hard, which often frightens the guests and makes the owners extremely apologetic. Usually, this kind of dog is more wary, and will do this kind of "warning" behavior in order to protect itself and its family.

4. Professional instinct

Some dogs are bred as working dogs, such as border collies and corgis. Take corgis as an example. They will bite their heels and spin in circles in order to gather everyone into a circle. If someone (animal?) leaves the group, corgis will bite his heels again to force him to return. Within the circle.
