We all know that when dogs see their owners or people they know, they will droop their ears and wag their tails like a fan. From this, we can judge the dog's mood. There are many other meanings of a dog wagging its tail, do you know them all?

Express goodwill and welcome

When you come home every day, your dog will warmly welcome you. Wagging its tail excitedly, it wants to pounce on you.

When a strange dog's tail is raised or parallel, and slightly swaying, it is expressing its affection for you and will not act aggressively towards you. And when its tail shakes into a flower, it mostly sees its owner.

Comfort and enjoyment

After the dog has eaten and drank enough, he will lie down on the ground and wag his tail leisurely. If the owner provides the "horse killing chicken" service at this time, the dog will enjoy it even more.

Uneasiness and fear

When a dog is scared, its tail will stand up high and its fur will explode like a cat, making itself taller and making the other person scared.

When only the end of a dog's tail is raised, it means that it is feeling uneasy, but does not want to fight, and hopes that the other party will not come close to it.

Tucked tail is also a sign of fear in dogs, because it wants to block its anal glands and hide its scent.

Very vigilant

When a dog is in danger, its tail will be raised high and swaying slightly. However, the dog's tail will be stiff at this time, indicating that it is preparing to attack.

If your dog’s tail is stiff and motionless, he may be frightened.

How dogs socialize

The way dogs greet each other is to smell each other's butts, because their anal glands store "personal information."

When dogs see each other, they will wag their tails to let their scent spread faster and let the other party know them. But don't watch them sniff each other's butts, or pull them apart if they feel dirty.

For dogs like Corgis without tails, it’s up to their owners to “observe their actions”!
