Understanding Your Dog’s Body Language

In the wild, animals communicate with each other using body language. Your dog will use the same body language to communicate with you. Thus you can understand your dog better if you know what different postures mean to him. Your dog is afraid if he postures himself in a way where he seems to shrink away with his tail between his legs. Sometimes this is misinterpreted as acting guilty. However, that guilty look is more a fear reaction. He fears what you will do when you see him doing something bad. Your dog may indicate that he wants to play by bowing with a toy or a stick. You know he is confident if he holds his head high and his tail up. He may even show dominance while puffing up his fur and acting aggressively. And of course, he might bite you if he is showing his teeth. For more information, contact your veterinarian Temecula, CA.
