Dog body language

Being a dog lover I'm familiar with the issues when bringing home a new dog, especially adult ones, and worries about how they'll behave. I found this article that talks of postures and such among dogs. I think it could prove useful in judging the threat of other dogs when out, you us owners dont have to be as stressed by an approaching dog

Yes good. This lady is the business when it comes to communicating... Articles by Turid Rugaas

I did a course with her not long back, and she has a lovely way with dogs.

Re: Dog body language

I like this bit, a point that most people overlook, too many people label aggression as dominance when it is far from it.


Quote:
Note that among dogs, the hierarchies are usually maintained and demonstrated very casually and almost always by more submissive members of the pack. Very high-ranking animals very seldom demonstrate their rank, unless they lack confidence. Most demonstrations and almost all fights that occur over rank are done by the middle-ranking or unconfident members.
