Dogs express their\nemotions through their body language and their tail plays a major role in it.\nThe position of a dog\u2019s tail indicates what he\u2019s feeling. As a pet parent, it\u2019s\nvital for you to pick up on the little signs to know what your pet is going\nthrough. Therefore, let\u2019s see what your dog\u2019s tail tells about him! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tail Curled Towards the Head<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, a dog\u2019s tail will be curled towards his\nhead when he\u2019s in a relaxed mood. Any dog that has his tail naturally curled\nshows that he is calm and content. However, if you observe your dog pulling the\ntail towards his head means that he\u2019s over-excited. Thus, it\u2019s vital to observe\nthe actions of the pet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tucked In<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A tail tucked in between the legs indicates that\nthe dog is scared or nervous. Whenever a dog is feeling frightened, he will\ntuck his tail in between his legs to cover and protect his genital areas. When\nobserving this, pet parents need to get alert and find a cause for such\nbehavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Right Side Tail Wag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, a dog that is wagging his tail on the\nright side is considered to be a friendly dog. Thus, it\u2019s fine to approach such\na dog. Next time, pay attention to the dog\u2019s behavior whenever you give him any\ntreats or bring his favorite toy. He will start wagging his tail! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Left Side Tail Wag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On the contrary, left side tail wagging indicates\nthat the dog is not comfortable in his surroundings. It could be the presence\nof a stranger or a dominant dog. So, during such time, it\u2019s best to keep a\ndistance from the pet and let him calm down on his own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick Tail Wag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;If you find\nyour pooch wagging his tail quickly and it\u2019s raised high and stiff, it is the\nmoment where the dog is feeling extremely confident. Moreover, dogs also do\nthis when they want to show their dominance over other dogs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Slow Tail Wag <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This generally means that your furry pal is thinking over something. A lazy, slow tail wagging means the pet wants to be left alone to have some quiet time. On other hand, a slow tail wag could also be a sign of nervousness in the dog. Thus, a pet parent needs to assess the surroundings first in order to know about his dog\u2019s feelings. <br>Dogs are adorable in every way and every little thing they do have some sort of meaning behind it. Whether it\u2019s wagging their tails or any other action, a dog could be trying to convey his feelings or showing contentment. It\u2019s not mandatory to know these signs, but if you do, it will certainly strengthen your bond with your furry pal! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A dog\u2019s tail does tell a tale.
