Understand the dog's body language: ears

The base of the dog's ears can be rotated. When it hears a sound that interests it, it will immediately turn its ears in the direction of the sound. If the dog's ears suddenly stand up and the whole body exerts force, it is a signal of alertness and attack. If the ears are down, it is a sign of obedience, indicating that it thinks the person coming is of higher status than it and will not attack the other person.

Understand the dog's body language: eyes

The dog's eyes are fixed on other dogs or people, and the whole body is tense, indicating that it wants to attack. When the owner is establishing prestige, he must look at the dog with a firm gaze. Through the eye contact, let the dog understand that the owner is invincible and make it surrender to the owner.

Understand the dog's body language: tongue

When a dog sticks out its tongue and licks a person, it is sending a signal of kindness, indicating that it likes this person. Sometimes the dog will jump on the owner and lick the person's face with saliva. This is to express how deep its love for the owner is.

Understand the dog's body language: legs

The dog tightens and spreads its legs, and presses its body slightly forward. This usually represents an aggressive action. However, it also depends on the occasion where this action occurs. If the dog is facing the owner at home, stretch the two front legs forward comfortably and press the body downward, with the hind legs straight and the butt raised high. If it is high, it means it is stretching comfortably. But if you are facing an outside dog, this action plus a low growl in your throat means that you are about to attack the other person.

Understand the dog’s body language: hair

When a dog is scared, the hair on its body will stand up. Raising the hair can make the body look much larger than it actually is, thereby intimidating the opponent.

Understand the dog's body language: tail

Generally speaking, a dog's tail standing upright indicates strong dominance, aggression and vigilance. On the contrary, a dog's tail is lowered or tucked between the two sides. The space between the two hind legs indicates submission and fear, while lowering the buttocks and half-bending the hind legs at the same time indicates extreme uneasiness and fear. Sometimes, a dog swats its tail vigorously in a circular motion from left to right to express "don't come near me." If it is staring at a target, slowly wagging its tail is a warning signal.
