dogs chase cats because they chase things that move and don't cats run from dogs? that's why they chase them to stop this from happening you have to have a well trained dog if you don't you might want to get rid of the cat or put the dog in a pen to make it a good dog you can flick it on the nose every time it chases your cat or you might hold it on a lease till the dog stops chasing the cat

Why do cats run away from dogs?

Not all dogs chase cats, but there are several reasons why a dog would chase a cat. Cats that are let outside usually roam, as they have quite large territories. Dogs, that perceive the house they live in as their territory, might chase off a cat if the dog feels like its territory is being threatened. Some dogs have a higher "chase" drive than others, and will just chase animals smaller than themselves for no other reason than to chase it. These reasons do not mean that dogs hate cats. Dogs and cats living in the same household are often very friendly towards each other.
