Dogs' attempts at blending into their environment demonstrate their instinctual adaptation skills. Dr. Sarah Thompson, animal behaviorist, explains: "This behavior reflects their natural survival instincts, where camouflage plays a crucial role in predator avoidance and hunting strategies."
Common camouflage techniques:
- Environmental blending - Strategic positioning - Movement control
Certified dog trainer Mark Jennings recommends: "Supervise these activities closely. Use them as opportunities to teach environmental awareness while ensuring safety and positive engagement."
