There’s a reason crooning “good dog!” makes your pup light up — and it’s not just because you often follow that phrase with a treat. Multiple studies show that dogs can not only read facial cues but can understand human speech, a concept that’s both good and bad for people. Sure, they can understand when you’re saying nice things but this means they’re equally capable — and, according to a new study, affected — when you’re saying not nice ones. The study, published dog training commands in BioRxiv last month, found evidence that training dogs using negative commands can “compromise the welfare” of pets, causing them long-term stress and lowering their overall cognitive abilities. In the study, researchers analyzed the short-term and long-term wellbeing of 92 different dogs from seven different training facilities in Portugal. The most common breed among the group was sheepdogs followed by pinschers, schnauzer, terriers, scent hounds, retrievers and water dogs. More than half of the dogs were male and roughly one third were neutered.
