Do dogs know they are dogs2007-11-25 3:01:09

I ask this cos I think my dog thinks he is human

Answers:

Maybe he thinks your a dog, not that hes a human?

---

well if he's human ask him

---

LOL my dog is an alaskan husky but he gets offended if you call him a dog. You have to call him wolf boy lol.He acts just like a big 85 pound baby.

---

Many humans don't know who they really are, let alone dogs

---

maybe dogs think they are humen and we are dogs.

---

I dont think so. My dog (well my ex g/f's brothers dog!) totally thinks he is human. He sits on the sofa, he trys to sit on a dining chair at the table etc. He will get his food from his dog bowl and sit at the side of the dining table eating it there if we are all eating at the table.

Of course they do Neil, well they do say that dogs are like there ownwer LOL

---

Well perhaps he is.Have you read the book FLUKE by James Herbert ? It's about a man who comes back as a dog and how he tries to make his family recognise him..Well, you never know !

---

My 3 are human for sure, they talk to me, even get mad and yell at me sometimes. Human? yes.

---

hey u got to tell your dog that he is a dog then it may know that it is a dog or it will keep assuming it is a human

---

anyone knows who is who.

---

They certainly know they're not cats.

---

You should read 'Fluke' by James Herbert. Great book about a dog that thinks he's a man.or a man that thinks he's a dog.. You don't find out which until the very end!

---

Yes they are human my big 3 dogs talk to us sleep where ever sofa and our bed,eat like us roast dinners at weekend with gravy or course and like others have said woof and jump and get very excited.So yes i reckon they are humans.

---

haha.really amazing!! and how did you notice that he's thinking he is human? so I think that YOU are changing into dog..if yo u start learn how does he think! lol

---

no they have their own language.and word dog means something else in their language

---

I dont think they know they are "Dogs" as it just name we have given them I think they do know what creature they are as they recognise others dogs even when they are different breeds. Mine is always very pleased with himself when he sees himself in the mirror. I love 'em

---

we naturally put human traits onto our pets, the question should be whether you know you are a human or not

---

No my dogs think they are human and we live with them. They only sit on furniture, drink coffee in the am, take us for walks and they think we go to work to make the bones for them.

---

He's got you well-trained and knows who's top dog, the leader of the pack. You must reassert your authority and he will be happier for it, freed from the anxieties of thinking he has to look after everybody else. Every canine would prefer to be No. 2 not No.1

---

my dog thinks he is a rat. Whenever he sees a cat, he swiftly run away. shame on him!!

---

No No and no. They think they are human, really.

Animal instinct over rules intelligence or training. Human
