What if the behaviors we’re taught to call “aggressive” are actually a dog trying to communicate that they feel unsafe?

In Look Closer: Rethinking Dog Warning Signals, writer Janis Bradley challenges us to reconsider the language we use to describe dogs who growl, snarl, snap, or bite. Drawing from behavioral science, canine genetics, shelter research, and decades of observation, Bradley explores how many of these behaviors are better understood as defensive responses to a perceived threat rather than evidence of a dog’s personality or intent to cause harm.

That distinction matters. Words like “aggressive” can quickly become labels, and labels can shape how we interpret a dog, the decisions we make about them, and ultimately how they are treated. By focusing instead on what a dog is communicating and the context in which a behavior occurs, we can make more informed decisions about safety, intervention, and welfare.

While doing press for her new movie, End of Oak Street, Anne Hathaway said, "It doesn't matter if anybody curses. It doesn't matter if there is violence. If a dog dies: R-rated."

We can get on board with this idea! What do you think? 🧡🐶🎥
