Do pets. Dogs / cats have confidence

[boostedguy05]

Coworker said a flyer he got was funny because it said boost your dogs confidence by getting them groomed. Or something like that. I said there was nothing wrong with that and agreed that it does boost confidence. He argued that pets have no confidence. He finally conceded saying he does not know, because he does not own a pet.


Do TCG, does grooming your pet boost their confidence?

Don't think so.

My dogs like being groomed and seem happy and energetic afterwards.

They do, but not in that sense. I don't think them being groomed makes a difference one way or another. But they have emotions and act more confident when they get what they want and are happy.

Dogs have confidence . Male dominance in a pack is an example . But the dog grooming thing , i think Venomous is right.

But if they are happy after getting groomed then wouldn't it be a yes....

Dogs will often reflect the attitude of their owners. If you are anxious about something, then the dog will be too. If you are calm, frightened, agitated, etc... I think the same thing would apply to "confidence", even though the dog doesn't know that it looks better after being groomed. It more has to do with the owner's happiness upon picking up their pet, and the pet acting happy because "hey, my owner is back, yay!". That may seem to portray "confidence", but just be a sign of the dog being content or happy.

I have 8 cats and a dog and they all have their own personalities. Sometimes they will pick on each other and you can tell which ones have good confidence and which ones don’t

Dogs absolutely have confidence and it is directly related to how they are treated by their owner.

Dogs have confidence and the smaller, the ballsier in my experience. You wanna see our dog run like no tomorrow? Just say the word "bath" so I don't think grooming helps confidence.
