Suddenly "grabby"?
Some days they take rewards gently, other days they may jump and sn**ch them from you.
When they do that it can be a sign they're feeling anxious or maybe even excited.
There's been a definite emotional shift and we need to keep a little eye on it.

How about all that dog "confetti" you've noticed?
More on the bed.
More on your clothes and couch?
Dogs shed naturally, but stress shedding means more than usual, sometimes immediate, over days or weeks
You may pat and your hand has a lot more stray hairs on it than normal.

There's just more hair everywhere.
Rolling tussocks of it (not quite but you get the idea).

Definitely keep note if you see these.
What's happening around?
What happened just before?

Time to get your detective hat on and find your magnifying glass.
It's time to do a wee bit of work to figure this all out.

They’ve flashed their tum…now what?
Well, that depends.

On a consult, when a dog flops in front of me, pulls their paws in tight, and stares intently....it’s rarely an invite for belly rubs. Quite the opposite for many dogs.

Rolling onto their back exposes their stomach, chest, and throat...areas with no real protection. In dog language, that’s one of the most vulnerable positions they can be in, which is why context and consent matter.

It’s easy to misread, I absolutely appreciate it is.....but we should be sure it’s an invitation before we approach.

When we dismiss a dog’s body language, we make it harder for them to communicate clearly in the future and that’s when misreads start to snowball.
A very slippery slope.
