WILL HELP THE DOG'S SURVIVAL

Nature provides animals with the ability to recognise rewarding and pleasurable experiences that will help them to survive. For instance in the wild, young predators learn to chase and kill a variety of small animals when they detect their scent, sound, or movement. They also learn what tastes acceptable and what tastes unpleasant or makes them ill.

This instinctive ability to assess what is happening around it is still very strong in the domestic dog.
