Describe any dog behaviour . . .

I have started a basic dog behaviour course and question number one asks for a good definition of the word behaviour and then to describe any dog behaviour.

I can answer the 15 subsequent questions so why am I stuck on this one?! Doesn't bode well for the next 6 modules!

some of it is from human psychology. some from dog stuff...I have read loads of books and forums so can't help with references, sorry. At this time in my life, its just all in my head. If you google the terms I have used, you will find references to the folk who observed all this. If you want extra brownie points, look up Konrad Lorenz and his discounted dominance theories.

Thanks again woofgang. I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out.

Dog behaviour is surely how a dog reacts to your commands ie. If the animal reacts immediately to your call to come to heel then I would say that is good behaviour.
