"My boy wouldn't get out of the bed. He became the envy of the household. I'd say he's very happy with it." - Steven R. 💓
Is there no food in sight but your #goldenretriever is licking its lips too much? Any dog that's licking its lips too much, no matter what breed, might be sending you a "calming signal." What does this mean?
Reasons for excessive licking:
✔️ appease itself of fear or anxiety
✔️ dog is uncomfortable or stressed
✔️ dog is either confused or frustrated
✔️ dog may have dental disease, mouth pain or health issues
When in doubt, check with your vet 💡

One of our favorites in the Doggo Linggo - the belly up 🐶
The pose: BELLY UP
The dog may be showing submissive behavior as a part of play. It may roll over on its back and expose its abdomen.
The pose: they become hyperactive; they may jump on people, bark loudly, or get the zoomies. That's excitement. Need we say more?
#zoomies #excited #bark #hyperactive #dog #calmingdog
Those furrowed brows and tucked ears tell you that your dog is anxious. If you are familiar with the dog, you may try to divert its attention elsewhere or bring him or her to its safe space.
The pose: The dog lowers its head, holds the ears partially back, and stretches the neck out. It may also lick its lips or yawn.

Don't you just love this happy dog's face - friendly and confident? All rainbows and sunshine here 🌈☀️
The pose: The dog has that precious smile, showing that they are confident and content. Their tails may wag, and may pant.

Have you ever been to the vet and your dog tried to run away? 🙋 Dogs are most sensitive to unfamiliar situations too. As your dog's most trusted person, try to stay calm and confident, and they will be as calm and collected as you.
The pose: The dog looks away from the threat, stands tense and low to the ground with its ears flat back. The tail is usually tucked between the legs while trembling. The dog may even pee or poop depending on its stress level.

Nothing beats confidence in a dog. What this behavior tells us is that our doggo is ready to take on the world 🐶✨
The Confident Dog pose: They are standing straight and tall with their head held high. Their ears perked up, and their eyes bright.👀

We have all seen an aggressive dog before. Did you know that most aggressive behavior is rooted in fear? When a dog is unsure about its surroundings, or meeting strangers, it is a natural response for dogs to show aggression. It could be that they are warning you of their territory too!
🚨 Redirect their attention by snapping them out of being fixated on this emotion. Walking away from the trigger, or a time out from them could help them realize that we are not happy about what they just displayed could work too.
The pose: feet are firmly on the ground, preparing to lunge. The dog is looking straight ahead with piercing eyes. The tail may be pointing straight or it could be wagging its tail. A snarl, a growl, or snapping teeth says it all.

Do you know what your dog is telling you? Dog behavior is made up of complex non-verbal cues that, most of the time, get lost in translation. We've broken down common dog behaviors for you. You'll know it when you see it! 💡
THE PLAY BOW: posed for play
The pose: front legs stretched forward, looking ahead, and rear end up in the air and possibly wiggling

"We have two Shelties-Nutmeg and Spice. Spice looks just like the dog in your advertisement. She loves it. Nutmeg for some reason won’t lay in it. They are very nice beds though." - John H.

"She ran right into it when I set it down and I often find her napping in the bed throughout the day. Four Paws way up!" - Ann L.

Some dog breeds like the German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Labrador Retriever are born to utilize their chasing abilities. Some breeds are naturally attuned to human needs and are perfect therapy companions like standard poodles. Dog breeds like the Beagle and Belgian Malinois have a natural ability to track down scents. Why not give our dogs jobs that allow them to fulfill their highest potential? If you’re as curious as us, here are some jobs only dogs can do.

If there’s a problem, there’s always a pawsitive solution. Building your dog’s confidence is easier said than done. But don’t worry, there’s always a good way to teach your dog to be on their best behavior. Be consistent by adopting a healthy cycle to overcome their instincts - exercise, discipline and affection. Practice exercising your dog's body, mind and heart.
