Unfortunately, the dog is unable to speak, so it uses its body to express what it feels at all times. When we decide to live with one, We will have no choice but to learn to observe and understand it. Thus, we can enjoy a pure and true friendship that will last forever.
However How to interpret the postures of my dog? If it is the first time we have a furry, it can be difficult for us to know what it is trying to tell us. After reading this article, we will surely be able to know what he is trying to do without difficulty 😉
Friendly
A friendly or playful dog is a furry that he will be very cheerful, with his mouth slightly open. It can have its front legs stretched out and its body thrown back. The tail will have it raised and will move it from side to side quickly. Sometimes from excitement you can bark. They will be sharp, very short barks, emitted with the sole intention of having your favorite human join the game.
Scared
If you are scared or afraid, will tend to stoop. It will lower its head and, if it feels really bad, it will have its tail between its legs and it may even shake. If he considers that his life is threatened, he will take the position of attack.
Pissed off
When a dog is angry or about to attack, the most common is that the mouth is slightly open, with the teeth -especially the fangs- clearly visible. Additionally, the hair on his back and tail can be raised to look bigger, he will growl and stare at his opponent.
Restless
In situations where there is something that does not leave him calm, he will remain attentive, with his tail either upright or down without any movement. The hair on the back can stand on end if, for example, there is someone (dog, person, or any other animal) trying to get your attention at that moment. When this happens, it is best to leave him alone and try to figure out what is bothering him. If we don't stop bothering him, he could react badly.
Turns on itself
The dog that turns on itself is an animal that he is usually very happy and happy. It can bark happily and spin around the place. Of course, if the tail is chased we will have to worry, since it could be that it had parasites or that it was very bored.
Lying on your back
When you lie down with your belly up is showing submission. Puppies do it a lot, when an adult is asking them for calm, or if they feel threatened.
