How To Understand Your Dog's Mood.

Here's a short guide to some basic dog body language and what that means:

Dominant - you will find that a dog dominant has its ears right or to transmit, its mouth slightly open or closed its eyes open wide or staring, its body permanent stiff and tall with possibly raised, and its tail of the organization stiffened or us. A low and authoritarian bark may often be provided.

Friendly - a friendly dog a is up ears, open and alert eyes, a relaxed atmosphere mouth, a tail or any rear agitated, and possibly whining, yapping or giving short bark.

Playful - an arc position with agite queue means play.

Submission - a dog with its ears closely return, the eyes closed and paw raised is showing extreme submission. The dog is not happy, but demonstrates that it will not attack.

Aggressive - aggressiveness in the dog has its ears aplatie back against his leader, his eyes narrowed or difficult, as the body tense, mouth open to show the teeth and tail holding of the organization, and we if possible. Some or growls are typical.

Concerned - Sharp barks combined with growling, ears flattened and neck hair raised means "I am concerned" or "something wrong."

The fear - a dog shows fear with a position lowered, tail or tucked under, a Arched Back, Looking or turning leader then showing the whites of their whites of the eyes and dilated pupils. Often dogs bark by fear, especially if they are driven, closed, or in leaves.

Stressed - a dog has stressed will often have ears back and low, a wide open mouth, lips fired back with rapid breathing. Also shoulders lowered, vaulted forward, the tail tucked, tension in thighs and will probably aspen.

Now that you understand more of what your puppy tries to tell you how he feels or the mood that it is to try to answer this in your puppy training and daily life. In a puppy training session your dog should be showing that it is in a friendly or ludic mood. If it shows that it is a dominant position then you know that it may not be taken you seriously or could be stubborn and you probably need to be more farm.

Some submission behavior is not a bad thing that it means that what he understands that you are responsible. If your puppy becomes stressed, fearful, worried or even aggressive, you must stop your training and reassure your dog immediately. If you have been training for more 15 minutes to stop and to take a break. When you come back takes the things more slowly or approach the things differently. Use your knowledge in every day life too. Watch your puppy in different situations and you will quickly discover what he likes and dislikes or how it feels. You can then take measures to give him more what he enjoys and more support, confidence and training in situations that it finds more difficult.
