SUMMARY:
- If the dog wags his tail slowly, this means he doesn’t understand what’s going on.
- A tucked tail is a sign that the dog is scared, afraid of pain, or feels uncomfortable. Most often, the dog tucks his tail between his legs when he is really afraid of something or someone.
- When you approach an unfamiliar dog, it’s better to avoid looking directly into his eyes. For dogs, staring at the eyes means aggression.
- The ears are standing straight up or inclined forward. The dog is showing you that he’s curious and reacting to some new event in his environment.
- The dog yawns. This means your dog is grumpy and nervous. Puppies do this quite often when they’re surrounded by big unfamiliar dogs.
- The dog licks his face. The dog does this when he’s stressed or feeling pressure or danger.
- The dog rolls over and exposes his belly. The dog is showing that he trusts you and wants to please you.
- The dog puts his head on your knee. This means the dog wants to get attention and show that he needs you.
- The dog puts his paw on your knee. If the dog does this with a very smug look, he is trying to dominate.
- The dog has one front paw raised. This stance means your pet wants to ask you something.
- Dogs may shake (like they shake off water after a bath) as a way of relieving tension. Probably, your dog was in stress or met an unpleasant person or dog.

Thank you this helps a lot with understanding my 2 cute dogs 🐶😁

[@carlacruz7413]

Actually, if you get a new pup, TOUCH HIS FOOD. Let him know that you won’t steal it, when the pup’s small touch his food while he eats so when he’s an adult he won’t attack you if he sees you near his food as he will know you won’t take it away from him. If you let him get used to dominating his food and not letting anyone near it, he will become aggressive when it comes to food.

A lot of times after I start petting my dog she licks her lips and squints her eyes with a happy face. I think that means she likes it.

When your dogs eyes are squinted, he wants to play. if he keeps squinting he needs a vet. or he's asleep falling asleep. -_-

Cameron Vogler when my dog was a puppy we'd often take her food for a couple seconds then give it straight back so now if we go near her when she eats she just looks up curiously and if we take it she just looks at us expectantly

[@katiecooper1387]

Yes! A dog should never growl when the owner, the alpha (hopefully), approaches. There are a lot of great ways to prevent and curb food aggression-- humanely.

[@TheNightslime]

...by dropping more food into the bowl. Carefully though, start by putting it on the ground to not get too close. You being close while eating will become a good thing.

Having lots of dogs in the house? It must smell a lot in the house, and the yard!

[@kabiraband9904]

[@izzymallory7093]

I just noticed how much my German shep always posts up looking out of to the street for me and he’s only 16 months. I’ve known a bulk of these Im curious to experience others great video thank you

[@dangus6934]

Australian Shepherds will bare their teeth when they are happy or playful sometimes... this is called the 'aussie grin'

[@oliviaburr5434]

D Angus I have two of them. They also most likely don't have long tail so this video is useless to me

[@yeahokaycoolcool]

My dog does it if I point at him, likely because that's usually when I'm telling him to stop doing something. He bares his teeth and then licks my finger. It's kind of adorable.

[@CRIMSON-FLAME1]

Jillian J My dog does this as well does that thing with his teeth but shows no aggression its always after i get done after a long day of just not being home. Could this be a sign of happiness. There is a very big difference from rhis compared to when he sees someone ride up in the yard when hes barking and growling plus the way he shows his teeth is completely different shape wise.

[@brandongordon4019]

This video was interesting and the cartoons were good examples of the explanation, but I think it could've been a bit more helpful if it included a short video showing off a real dog doing the suggested action as well. But all in all, it's a great video!

[@oreo_fox4731]

What about if he sits by your side, or sits underneath your legs when standing, he does this by himself, it’s so cute!

[@notcommunistcrapshoot3098]

The food thing is a double edged sword if you are afraid to show your dog that you control the food then the dog is showing its dominance over you. When it’s a puppy it’s important to build a bridge of trust with the food ask the dog to sit and lay before giving the food, take the food away from the dog then praise the dog and give the food back so it knows people won’t steal its food when they are around it, then give praise when you return the food to reward the good behavior. I might be wrong but it’s worked for me.

[@-taemiso-292]

"Understanding a dog's body lanaguage is essential for building a strong relationship" Clearly she doesnt know this since she hugged the dog like 7 seconds into the video. Dont wrap your hand around the dog's neck and try to pull it in for a "hug". Dogs dont like that and the dog in the video is clearly tolerating her.

[@celestemassarenti469]

*****​ She didn't say the dog feels "challenged", he simply tolerates her. And that's true. Scientifically proven: dogs don't like hugs. Then every dog lets you do it but if they don't move or react it doesn't mean they agree to it, they're simply patient 'cause they love you

[@-taemiso-292]

Celeste Massarenti exactly

[@marsmission2294]

Amanda Forde it honestly depends I had a dog that hated hugging but my current dog loves it... yah he paws at you to pet him and hug him.... has super sharp claws also.... hurts.

[@gorrillawarfair]

it really depends on the dog. but the only people who should do so is the dog's owner. of course a dog isnt gonna be cool with getting hugged by people they are unfamiliar with.

[@alex-tl2ei]

Showing teeth doesn't always mean bad. Some dogs are very smiley when they're happy or exited. My dog always do this really teethy grin when familiar people come to our home or I'm getting ready to go for a walk with her or when we do something fun together like learn new tricks. But always ask from an owner if you wanna approach a dog showing teeth and wagging its tail because all dogs are different and the owner knows best what's the dogs mood at that moment.

[@thereversechoir]

alex my dog also does it whenever I'm playing with her, pretty sure the people who made this video didn't do as much research as they could have

[@louisbrayton5117]

alex My Canaan Dog was very aware that showing teeth is a sign of aggression, so she figured out that by showing only her bottom teeth she could smile without the threat.

[@Martypotty]

My puppie's Mama ( No not being racial or "Gendercist" Here. I still call my Mama mama... So nigh!.. ) also does that teeth grin thing, but she isn't being dominate, And my puppie's brother also does that. I hardly ever even see my puppy do that I think. Or at all.. I only saw it twice. the other 2 do it Wayyy more often I think. I'm not sure. XD.

[@CrystalChibiPup]

My dog grins when I am taking photos of her XD She's very photogenic. Like she poses. Sits pretty. Then gives me her big teethy grin haha

[@barbaralatham5107]

alex Especially Dalmatians. People often mistake their smiles for growls.

[@blairlirazannn7872]

Thank you Bright side..it big help for a dog owners.

[@anubianqueen79]

Thanks for the understanding...now me and Max are better.

[@sarahandava2719]

My dog never growled at us. He didn’t care if we came close to him while he was eating. :) he was the best dog ever.

[@maryannlockwood3961]

Both my dogs are the same way. My older dog r takes thyroid medications and sometimes I forget to put it in her bowl right away and I add it while she's eating and there's no problem. She has Standing up ears & my younger dog has floppy ears so I've learned to know what they mean by whether their ears are turned in or pulled back etc.

[@theloulougamer7204]

Dog: *tail rising* Me: Oh, you are approaching me ?

[@kevinchoi9999]

I can't dominate without getting closer.

[@user-rx7mf1ck5j]

[@IkalChan-yk5zf]

[@Strike-hopper]

Dog barks cutie You: don't approach your too cute ahhh Dog: hugs You: its play time Dog:yeahhhhhhh

[@krystaluribe4068]

I understand a lot better now.Thanks!

[@tesglamification4193]

Btw this helped a lot! Now I know why he puts his paw up when I am giving him treats!

[@clairenfine2700]

My dog is oliver. Once he put his paw up on my knee and looked straight in the eye. Its supposed to mean im in charge. It actually worked!! Also, Also i had a dog when i was a baby he saved my baby life bc i went in the road without my parents knowing, and when my dog saw me he snached me and ran back. I will never stop saying thank you to him in dog heaven💙💙🐶🐶

[@clairenfine2700]
