Not sure if the video creators will have the time to answer my questions...so if you're a dog trainer, I'll just ask you :) I adopted a Chipoo (1/2 Chihuahua, 1/2 toy poodle, for those who don't know) a few months ago (she was born in July of 2021...so she's around 9-months old), and just so you can understand my situation some...I'm a 41-year-old man with pretty severe depressive and anxiety disorders. So much so, that I can't work or function normally...and back in August, I moved from Oregon to upstate New York to live with my retired parents. I got the dog because A) with severe social anxiety, and living in a place where I don't know anyone and am too "socially anxious" to go out and meet people...and given the fact that my 8-year-old cat passed away just a couple months prior to my move...I felt it would benefit me greatly to get an emotional support animal (as did my doctors). B) Though it HAS been beneficial...sometimes she drives me absolutely INSANE (not literally. My mental health isn't THAT bad). For one thing...she steals. Everything that will fit in her tiny mouth...and she rarely seems to have a reason. She'll take something; drop it in some random place; then just leave it there (except socks. Those are her obsession, and she will use them as chew toys, despite her dozens of ACTUAL chew toys). C) She's gotten pretty good about using training pads for #2's...but not always for #1's (and since we rent our place...that's bad). I've tried training her (with a reward system...never punishment...though I admit I do sometimes yell. My mental disorders cause me to become overwhelmingly stressed very quickly, and with even the most minor of triggers). D) I HAVE owned a couple dogs before...but that's when I was a kid, and didn't care much about really training them. As an adult, I've almost always had 1 or 2 cats at a time, which are FAAAAAAR more independent than dogs....so my experience is very limited. E) We live in a large, upscale townhome community with 2 or 3 very nice dog parks on the premises (though I don't believe I've seen a single resident use one). Our home is nice...but there are no private, fenced-in outdoor areas, and our single-car gararge is full of storage and tools (though I did set-up a grooming station out there, because professional grooming (even at Petco) is just too expensive...especially with a dog that's 1/2 poodle. I watched a few TH-cam videos on grooming Chipoo's (or similar breeds)...but my first attempt was't great. Anyway...our home is nice, and a typical size for a 3-bed, 2 1/2 bath townhome...but there's not a lot of open space. Since this is wayyyyyyy upstate NY...there was around a foot or more of snow on the ground for several months (and she's like 6 or 7 inches tall...so yeah...no walks). I wasn't able to take her outside at all. Currently, there's been no snow for a few days...but more is still expected within the next week or so. How do I potty train her or exercise her in these conditions? We're all very affectionate here, and I strive to do my best with her...as do my parents...but obedience training is also quite expensive. She barks too much; steals too much; gets in to the trash; and generally doesn't obey. She's very loving, and though she does get the "zoomies"...to me, that's a result of not being able to get outside and exercise. We definitely play with her a lot...she's far from neglected, and I refuse to crate her. We got her a large sort of playpen (similar to one you'd get for a human baby)...and we'll use that on rare occasions if necssary...but that's it. I feed her the healthier, more expensive wet food (appropriate stuff for her age)...but she often doesn't like it, and will refuse to eat it until she's so hungry that she has no choice (it's the same with dry food...only worse). She darts out the front or back doors whenever they're opened for even a second, then won't come back when called. She knows her name...she knows the word "NO"...but often won't come when called even indoors, and will respond when you tell her "no"...but only for a moment...then goes right back to doing whatever she was doing. She gets into the garbage...steals mail and important paperwork, doesn't simply destroy it...she actually EATS IT. My parents are retired, and I'm basically disabled...so she's rarely unsupervised at all. I'm just at a loss here. I love her, and I need her for the sake of my emotional well-being...but my mental/emotional disorders also make the training process nearly impossible for me...and since she's my dog, my parents refuse to help with her training much, if at all (as if I'm a child being taught responsibility...not a middle-aged man who's owned countless pets, and understands responsibility quite well). Any advice???
@@TimPetrone Okay. Sorry I didn't see this sooner!!! So, I have anxiety too. It was a big leap for me being able to talk to people and sort out their problems with their dogs. It seems your problem might be lack of exercise. I used to watch a goldendoodle, it seemed no matter how much we walked him he would not stop bouncing off the walls. So, I recommend getting a treadmill. You see, poodles and poodle mixes are very energetic. They need lots of walks especially when they are a puppy. They need to be tired to learn new commands or just be easier to handle. When you are feeling stressed, step back, take a deep breath. All puppies chew stuff they aren't supposed to. And I'll be honest with you, most dogs don't really calm down until they are adults which is 4 years old. Again, treadmills work so well when you are trying to train them or making them easier to handle. And try hand feeding your dog, sounds gross I know but it works when one of my dogs are being stubborn. Hope this helps, if you have anymore questions let me know.
ye i got my pug today so idk much about dogs and he kept putting hes paw on my hand when i was strokeing me i was so confused then i searched this and it just meant he loved me wich isnt to surpriseing cuz pugs are one of the most loveing dogs out there it could get annoying if i leave him he just wimpers or barks so i have to be with him 24/7 hes so cute tho
I knew what some of the body language positions meant, but I learned about several that I didn't know. Thank you for taking the time to explain each one & give examples of what the dogs are trying to communicate. Very helpful
This doesn’t have anything to do with the video but one time when my dad came to my house to say hi even tho I was sleeping (obviously he didn’t know😂) and my dog was just sleeping near my bed, and when my dad came and tried to wake me up and hug me my dog barked at him bc she probably thought he would hurt me! When I heard about this I was so happy!
This just happened to me , my dad came in the house and I was showering , the dogs were on their beds in the dinning room and followed my dad upstairs and my dad threw a towel at me to say hurry up and my dogs went for him . Didn’t hurt him but they scared my dad and myself , I have 2 dog de Bordeaux’s and one cane corso , so big dogs
So thankful for this info. I'm a "pet whisperer". We have a rescued dog that has been very standoffish toward me. We believe that his former owner abused him. But after five weeks, he is beginning to know that I'm not his former owner.
Many comments mention that zoomies (8:57) are a good thing and dogs do it for joy. This can be true in many cases, but also wrong in others. I watched a puppy doing zoomies to relieve stress. Kids would force him to play all day long and chase him a lot. Also putting him up, carrying him around, stuff like that. He had zoomies so much, it was crazy. Please tell your kids how to interact with dogs, how to read their signals and respect them..!
Dear friend I had a hard time understanding my puppy but I was assuming all these signs correctly, and your explanation has boosted my belief in my puppy. Thank you for your wonderful work.
Aw. How old is your puppy now? I can give advice if you'd like, I'm a dog trainer. Just ask, I give training advice to people alot on TH-cam along with quotes.
I then asked him who was the best baseball player ever? He said "Ruth! Ruth!" I said, oh, come on now and he looked up at me and said, "was it DiMaggio?"
I have been a people trainer for over ten years and would like to share an interesting story about the "exposing belly". I had a client I was working with that came to me for training with her 8 month old female Shih Tzu. I was working with the owner and dog for about 3 weeks. The dog was very social and quite sweet. I noticed that she would leak urine when approached by a friendly stranger. This would happen at the start of our sessions but stop after we had been in our session for a little while. I also noticed the dog would excitedly run up to strangers and once they started petting or engaging with her, she would quickly lie down and expose her belly. On her 4th week of training, I didn't spend as much time in the beginning of the session petting her as I had a very clear cut routine that I wanted to quickly get started on with her. However, she performed exceedingly well that day and at the end of the session, so I decided to have a little play session to end the day. I knelt down to pet her and she did her signature roll over and show belly. I gently petted her belly while I looked at her parent engaging her in conversation. As I petted her, I quickly noticed her lower belly felt different. I looked down at her belly and noticed the mammary glands closest to her back legs looked (and felt) swollen and bruised. I instructed the parent to quickly get to the vet. She took her in the next day and it was discovered the dog had a mastitis or infection in the glands. She underwent vet care and the dog was also spayed. There was a two week span for the dog to recover before we picked training back up. Once she came back to me I noticed that she was no longer exposing her belly like she did so frequently before. She seemed so be more engaged in the training than before as well. I wonder if sometimes, dogs can use exposing a belly for example to indicate trouble and perhaps that's what this dog was trying to do? Just a thought.
An interesting story. I'm not a trainer but I have two cavaliers and they often have things wrong, like ear infections. I have read books that say that dog's will push through pain so they're not targetted by other dogs so I don't think this was the dog's intention. What I am impressed with is your observation skills. You only saw the dog once a week but still noticed an abnormality. That's the type of thing we all should aspire to.
@@deefee701 Thank you Dee! I really appreciate the kind words! I sometimes think with my animals (2 dogs and a bearded dragon) that I can be a bit of a overly precautious pet parent and do tend to seek vet advice on any and every detail no matter how small. I tend to have the same approach with my clients dogs. In this case, I am really glad we got her the help she needed right away before it became something much worse! You are right, she may not have been indicating anything at all with the belly showing other than, "please pet me here!". Dogs do have great resistance to pain and ailments, so what you said sounds accurate! I just thought how interesting would that be if it were the case! 😊
i just wanna mention something about the tail tucking! some breeds, such as greyhounds and their smaller counterparts (whippets and italian greyhounds), naturally have their tails tucked in all the time. so if you have one of those breeds, dont worry!
I mostley understand my dog but he is 7 years and he came to me 2 years ago soo we have some communication-problems, in a good way, he’s an expert on surprise me and i love it❤️
10:00 I have an Aussie shepherd and she also does this when she's feeling really happy and silly. Idk if it's like that for other dogs but it's a thing with Aussies
I agree with most of these. But the "zoomies" are not due to a stressful situation at all. While it can be due to being in an enclosed environment for a period of time. In my experience, only happy and healthy dogs will get the zoomies. Most of the time they are experiencing intense joyful moments and they let that out with their explosive energy. My pup is spoiled and is treated better than anyone i know and she is extremely happy. The only time she gets the zoomies is when we are playing, which is pretty much every day. She was horribly abused by her previous owner so i refuse to crate her or enclose her by force. She loves going into the open closet at the end of the night to relax. I put a bed in there for her and that is her little safe space where she can go if she wants to relax. I have always been a dog owner and dog lover and i have never experienced a dog getting the zoomies after a stressful situation. I have always known the zoomies to come after or during happy time or play time.
@@lahlahluv8380 I love dog parents like us. I don't "own" my dog. If anything, my dog owns me. When I look at her I don't see just a dog. I see a family member who's sole purpose in life is to make me happy because she wants to. When she sees me happy, she is happy. But she wants nothing in return from me. That's why I spoil her. She has no idea how many times she has saved me and has brought me back from a very dark place. I could NEVER repay her for what she has done for me. That's why she is spoiled and will be spoiled for the rest of her life. I owe her that and more.
@@N0rseman I definitely get it! When I’m having a bad day at work and when I get home, my dog Biscuit greets me and makes my day so much better! I love him so much ❤️
Useful information but seems like most of them are always down to stress or anxiety my pup is neither she yawns the whole time and she’s the happiest pup going
I agree my dog is so spoiled and pampered and yawns and shakes like out of the bath all the time. She's kinda lazy and does not like her fur out of place.
My dog always has her tail tucked.. She always has for about a year? She's been to the vet .. I never really thought about it .. Thank you .. I will investigate ..
I think a dog sometimes shivers in excitement. E,.g. in the car on our way to a walk in the forest. There may be a bit of trepidation in there, but I think it is happy excitement. Arousal can be good or bad.

I'd say some of these are case by case. most are true for my dog, but some seem to be a bit too strict. Like Zoomies, it's said here that it's cause they're releasing tension, but my dog gets the zoomies when people she's really comfrontable with come in our house. Like When my mom and I walk into the house after throwing garbage or something quick like that, she would jump on us and then run in circles around the house or when my sister comes to visit. Like yes that is a valid reason, but not the only reason.
They do it when they're overwhelmed I have noticed that if they get extremely excited for one of my dogs he does that more often in similar instances when somebody he likes comes but my other dogs that if we scold him or try to stop him he starts running
Mark...sounds like my Aussie. He's a spinner. He barks if my wife sneezes. He barks when my wife throws a small bag of trash in the can outside. He spins when he knows he's getting a treat. He is the most intelligent and easily trained dog I've ever had. Also, he will not tolerate violence on his turf. When my wife and I pretend we're going to fight, he steps between us and barks at the aggressor. He is a hoot.
6:52 the pix of the real dog is a superb example of a dog saying, "I am absolutely NOT going to hurt you, no matter what. You may even take my yummy bone. I actually like you. Please don't be scared of me." NOTICE the front teeth exposed as a 'smile.' The fangs are NOT exposed, not ready to bite without biting their own lip. Notice it's not making any sudden moves, nor on its back which is often a fighting technique. _[edited] to add, click the blue number (__6:52__) to go directly to this portion of this video._ _as opposed to __7:18__ no whites showing, fangs_ are _bared, full upper lip drawing back. This one WILL bite you if you persist in whatever you were doing a quarter of a second ago_
Just read you're post. Very sorry to hear that. I had to put down my mini doxie 2 years ago. Still miss him terribly. Finally got another mini 2 months ago. A sweet little guy. After grieving for as long as you need, please get another one. It won't replace your baby, but can help you and give a dog a loving home. Take care.
i just have one more question, what about side eyeing? My dog does it too me when she is sleepy. or when she is feeling visous or thinks i'm gonna take her treat, or when she is ignoring me. she does it alot! i just want to know what it means.
I think for the sleepy part, making sure your safe before sleeping and all the rest is a territorial things. They did say never go near a dog while it's eating or it's gonna think you're taking it's food. So it isn't too big of a deal it's just territorial side eyeing I believe. And, the ignoring, is probably being sassy as well. A lot of dogs can be sassy too so you might have a sassy dog XD
My parent’s husky used to talk! He would come to her and when she asked what she wanted she would say “out”. She called my mother “mama” always which I don’t understand because all of the rest of us called her Mom. She said lots of other words too but I can’t think of them right now!
"Your dog will not fake emotion." My dog: "MOTHER, MOTHER I AM AFRAID MY PAW HAS BEEN SNAPPED IN HALF." In reality: *He stepped on a leaf and got a fright.*
My dog: “OMG I have to go potty soooo bad, I might not make it. We gotta go.” In reality: Spends 20-30 minutes examining various trees and bushes, sniffing everything, and eating things that aren’t food. Spends 5 seconds at the end of that to squeeze out a quick pee. Me: “What happened to all that urgency? Thought you had to go potty sooooo bad.” 😒
Many dogs don't like to be touched. Particularly on the underbelly as their viral organs are in this spot. Best to go slow and do not put your hand above their head.. keep your hand near eye level so they see it at all times but not close enough where they can bite it.
My dog gets the zoomies after a long walk or play session. Hes happy as a clam when we are walking and fetching outside. As soon as we get home though, he goes nuts. It honestly feels like his way of saying "I LOVED THAT".
"Dogs lick you for many reasons, they may want to show you affection and love" My dog: here, you have 1 crumb on your hand I'll fix that *eats whole hand*
YAWNING is also a proactive calming communication if a dog feels *_someone else_* (including you!) may be feeling stressed. They may also do it to be polite while asking you to do something. "No Biggy, but, wanna feed me now? Or play? Play is good! Or a sample? Of what your eating!" Yawning at a dog can let you help calm them from any visible distance. Idly look away while yawning. _[edited to add] __7:55__ goddamnit those puppies are obviously sleepy! Thanks for confusing us!_
my CKCS "Jack" will sit down and wag his tail between his legs...most people laugh because at first it looks like the little guy has a "Big Friend"...nope just his tail, and he isn't cowering, just sitting (excitedly)when he really wants to run around and play with the strangers.
My dog hunches over when I trim her nails to try to get out of it. I've never cut her quick. I'm not sure that she's scared exactly, more like she just really doesn't like it. Like trying to climb outta the tub before her bath is over.
This is great information so whenever I get another dog I'll refresh with watching this again Anyways God bless everyone who comes across this comment ✝️
This is something creepy. In the middle of the night our dog barking towards my bed and seems like he didn't recognize me while im asleep. It woke me up and had a goosebumps all over my body.
Yikes! What kind of dog is it? Unless it's a small dog that can't do damage, I'd keep get a lock for my bedroom and not let it sleep in my bed. People have gotten mauled in their sleep, so that's not something to take a chance on.
I was owned by a Great Dane for almost (3mos. Shy of)14 years n i loved her like no other! She loved me too. She loved me enough for me to... even years after her death I still miss n mourn her.. That girl dog would NOT KISS ME THO!!!😂❤lmao I've never felt love that deeply bfor from a dog but she just WOOD NOT kiss any of us! Lmao in all those yrs...I can count on 1 hand how many times she kissed all of us combined! Smh she wasn't a kissy kinda girl lmao smh Funniest dog Id ever met...no kissing tho. None! Nope! Notta! Lmao ZILCH!😂❤ smh crazy ole lady dog lol RIP Phoebe Daniella❤🥺
That’s so cute! My Archie does the stretch bow :). And my Mamba does the belly up for rubs. I notice he also does that to look cute so we won’t be mad at him for peeing somewhere he shouldn’t too. Dogs are clever.
My 8 week old pup always scratches and licks himslef randomly whenever I try to train him. And sometimes during play. Kinda feel bad about this since he arrived a few days ago. What should I do?
I thought the raised paw meant pointing at prey, my Beagle/Brittany mix used to do that then would pull on the leash towards the target. I noticed even a plastic bag would sometimes get her going.
OMGGGG i was so scared because my whole family left and told me to watch over my dog and she stood next 2 the door crying and im like does she hate me??? i give her everything then i went and gave her a piece of bacon and peanut butter than she cuddled on me im like oh..this is confusing so i searched up this video and the end just helped me
I love my dog I have 5 of them but one of them is kinda weird cuz they wag their tail but their ears flattened against head they like me also scared is that a problem? I didn't hurt him or anything he also likes to go under the couch and bed he only comes out afternoon:(
Okay. So this one stray dog which lives near the area where i live, i do feed him with bones often during the night time for 2 weeks now. And today when i saw him outside my home, i called out to that dog and he came to me running swinging his tail and he was "Jumping" multiple times and putting both his paws on my legs trying to reach higher and spinning and making all kind of noices and all lol and i was backing up lol. What is is trying to tell me ? Can someone tell me ? Why does the dog do that when it sees me ?
Hi, I have my russian terrior 4 years, she was always near me. I played with a tennis ball, throwing it and she fetching it and bring it to me. From October 2021 my sister in law came to stay with me and since she came my dog suddenly went and layed in her room and even later didn't want to listen to me. It got worse, now she doesn't want to lay in my room during the day or near me, only during night time when my siste r in law goes to bed. Now she does'nt chase the ball at all, she just runs to my sister in law's room all the time. She doesn't eat like she used too. Can you help me, I don't know what is going on with my doggy?
My dog hates me 😭😭 he's avoiding eye contact and doesn't give attention. I realised this after this video. I never do anything to it. I even give his lunch and daily I'll give him a hug he just never gives attention other than while i bring him food please give any tips to fix this and I mean it.
I dipped my dog n Happy jack mange med hade bad reaction didn't have any thing to do with me for a whale after that check out stress an anxiety n dogs wed pages I learned a lot 4:28
10:08 my dog use to do this with my other animal but what I did was every time she ate I went down there and took some and ig bc it was me she eventually let the other dogs eat with her

My dog does the paw thing. I've always thought it was cute. Now I'm extra happy to know it means she loves me. 💘

Remember when your teen came to you telling he/she loves you? -- It means they need money. The same with dog's pawing, they want something from you.

When I heard about this I was so happy!
Maybe he didn't came to hug or wake you... I think his plans to eliminate you flopped because of your dog... Sucha nice dog
My girlfriend had this one dog who would bark at me nonstop whenever I went anywhere near them 😂
I think he also thought I would hurt her or something
He probably wanted to take your virginity but your dog saved you
My puppy bites my nose!🥵🤪😝🤣
This just happened to me , my dad came in the house and I was showering , the dogs were on their beds in the dinning room and followed my dad upstairs and my dad threw a towel at me to say hurry up and my dogs went for him . Didn’t hurt him but they scared my dad and myself , I have 2 dog de Bordeaux’s and one cane corso , so big dogs
So thankful for this info.
I'm a "pet whisperer". We have a rescued dog that has been very standoffish toward me. We believe that his former owner abused him. But after five weeks, he is beginning to know that I'm not his former owner.
Many comments mention that zoomies (8:57) are a good thing and dogs do it for joy. This can be true in many cases, but also wrong in others. I watched a puppy doing zoomies to relieve stress. Kids would force him to play all day long and chase him a lot. Also putting him up, carrying him around, stuff like that. He had zoomies so much, it was crazy. Please tell your kids how to interact with dogs, how to read their signals and respect them..!
Dear friend I had a hard time understanding my puppy but I was assuming all these signs correctly, and your explanation has boosted my belief in my puppy. Thank you for your wonderful work.
Aw. How old is your puppy now? I can give advice if you'd like, I'm a dog trainer. Just ask, I give training advice to people alot on TH-cam along with quotes.
Same, my dog is like 8 or 9 years old in dog years as im typing this comment and these videos help me alot to understand her.
My dog can talk. I asked him what his favorite part of the house is, he said, “roof, roof”…I’m not sure why he likes the roof though
He's just making a joke, but it went over your head.
😂😂😂😂
u are a clown 🤣🤣🤣
I asked my dog how does sandpaper feel? He said "ruff, ruff!"
I then asked him who was the best baseball player ever? He said "Ruth! Ruth!"
I said, oh, come on now and he looked up at me and said, "was it DiMaggio?"
I have been a people trainer for over ten years and would like to share an interesting story about the "exposing belly". I had a client I was working with that came to me for training with her 8 month old female Shih Tzu. I was working with the owner and dog for about 3 weeks. The dog was very social and quite sweet. I noticed that she would leak urine when approached by a friendly stranger. This would happen at the start of our sessions but stop after we had been in our session for a little while. I also noticed the dog would excitedly run up to strangers and once they started petting or engaging with her, she would quickly lie down and expose her belly. On her 4th week of training, I didn't spend as much time in the beginning of the session petting her as I had a very clear cut routine that I wanted to quickly get started on with her. However, she performed exceedingly well that day and at the end of the session, so I decided to have a little play session to end the day. I knelt down to pet her and she did her signature roll over and show belly. I gently petted her belly while I looked at her parent engaging her in conversation. As I petted her, I quickly noticed her lower belly felt different. I looked down at her belly and noticed the mammary glands closest to her back legs looked (and felt) swollen and bruised. I instructed the parent to quickly get to the vet. She took her in the next day and it was discovered the dog had a mastitis or infection in the glands. She underwent vet care and the dog was also spayed. There was a two week span for the dog to recover before we picked training back up. Once she came back to me I noticed that she was no longer exposing her belly like she did so frequently before. She seemed so be more engaged in the training than before as well. I wonder if sometimes, dogs can use exposing a belly for example to indicate trouble and perhaps that's what this dog was trying to do? Just a thought.
An interesting story. I'm not a trainer but I have two cavaliers and they often have things wrong, like ear infections. I have read books that say that dog's will push through pain so they're not targetted by other dogs so I don't think this was the dog's intention.
What I am impressed with is your observation skills. You only saw the dog once a week but still noticed an abnormality.
That's the type of thing we all should aspire to.
@@deefee701 Thank you Dee! I really appreciate the kind words! I sometimes think with my animals (2 dogs and a bearded dragon) that I can be a bit of a overly precautious pet parent and do tend to seek vet advice on any and every detail no matter how small. I tend to have the same approach with my clients dogs. In this case, I am really glad we got her the help she needed right away before it became something much worse!
You are right, she may not have been indicating anything at all with the belly showing other than, "please pet me here!". Dogs do have great resistance to pain and ailments, so what you said sounds accurate! I just thought how interesting would that be if it were the case! 😊
Too long, did not read

Omg. The dog will literally "Shake it off" ...oh the joy in my heart right now
I really enjoyed your video's.
I love my Dog 🐶. I take her everywhere with me including work. Dogs are the greatest companion you could ever want.
i just wanna mention something about the tail tucking! some breeds, such as greyhounds and their smaller counterparts (whippets and italian greyhounds), naturally have their tails tucked in all the time. so if you have one of those breeds, dont worry!
The differences in breeds is very important.
Im going to show my owner this video so now she can understand me 😁🐾
Hey ernie 🥰
Hello! 🐾
Awww 🥰
"Your dog may lick you because you have some yummy residue on your skin."
My dog: mmmmmm. Lotion.
I'm laughing so hard! My puppy knows when I'm going to apply lotion and tries to lick it all off. Yummmmmm...Neutrogena hydro boost lick lick lick
I mostley understand my dog but he is 7 years and he came to me 2 years ago soo we have some communication-problems, in a good way, he’s an expert on surprise me and i love it❤️
❤
My dog always like me at the face and everywhere and does a playbow everytime and shows her belly all the time so I think my dog loves me thanks 😊
Hi there !! do you like wolves
Uh yes? Why?

Such an important lesson! Thank you!
My mini Doxie pets my cheek with his paws - true love ❤️
Bridget my boy rubs against objects to show he likes me!
10:00 I have an Aussie shepherd and she also does this when she's feeling really happy and silly. Idk if it's like that for other dogs but it's a thing with Aussies
I agree with most of these. But the "zoomies" are not due to a stressful situation at all. While it can be due to being in an enclosed environment for a period of time. In my experience, only happy and healthy dogs will get the zoomies. Most of the time they are experiencing intense joyful moments and they let that out with their explosive energy. My pup is spoiled and is treated better than anyone i know and she is extremely happy. The only time she gets the zoomies is when we are playing, which is pretty much every day. She was horribly abused by her previous owner so i refuse to crate her or enclose her by force. She loves going into the open closet at the end of the night to relax. I put a bed in there for her and that is her little safe space where she can go if she wants to relax. I have always been a dog owner and dog lover and i have never experienced a dog getting the zoomies after a stressful situation. I have always known the zoomies to come after or during happy time or play time.
Like you I think my dog's zoomies are simply expressions of joie de vivre, too. She is just happy excited and overall happy with life.
True, my dog only does this when he is extremely happy
Same! My dog has the zoomies whenever he’s playing, just lets me know he’s happy and I spoil him too! 😂
@@lahlahluv8380 I love dog parents like us. I don't "own" my dog. If anything, my dog owns me. When I look at her I don't see just a dog. I see a family member who's sole purpose in life is to make me happy because she wants to. When she sees me happy, she is happy. But she wants nothing in return from me. That's why I spoil her. She has no idea how many times she has saved me and has brought me back from a very dark place. I could NEVER repay her for what she has done for me. That's why she is spoiled and will be spoiled for the rest of her life. I owe her that and more.
@@N0rseman I definitely get it! When I’m having a bad day at work and when I get home, my dog Biscuit greets me and makes my day so much better! I love him so much ❤️
I asked my dog how's life, he said "ruff"😭
Mine says "Barf Barf".
thanks a LOT for the USEFUL information SERIOUSLY
Useful information but seems like most of them are always down to stress or anxiety my pup is neither she yawns the whole time and she’s the happiest pup going
I agree my dog is so spoiled and pampered and yawns and shakes like out of the bath all the time. She's kinda lazy and does not like her fur out of place.
6:16 whic dog breed is that?🤔
My dog always has her tail tucked.. She always has for about a year? She's been to the vet .. I never really thought about it .. Thank you .. I will investigate ..
It's a set of great knowledge 👍👍
I think a dog sometimes shivers in excitement. E,.g. in the car on our way to a walk in the forest. There may be a bit of trepidation in there, but I think it is happy excitement. Arousal can be good or bad.
my dog always shivers when he is excited
Pppppp

I'd say some of these are case by case. most are true for my dog, but some seem to be a bit too strict. Like Zoomies, it's said here that it's cause they're releasing tension, but my dog gets the zoomies when people she's really comfrontable with come in our house. Like When my mom and I walk into the house after throwing garbage or something quick like that, she would jump on us and then run in circles around the house or when my sister comes to visit. Like yes that is a valid reason, but not the only reason.
They do it when they're overwhelmed I have noticed that if they get extremely excited for one of my dogs he does that more often in similar instances when somebody he likes comes but my other dogs that if we scold him or try to stop him he starts running
Mark...sounds like my Aussie. He's a spinner. He barks if my wife sneezes. He barks when my wife throws a small bag of trash in the can outside. He spins when he knows he's getting a treat. He is the most intelligent and easily trained dog I've ever had. Also, he will not tolerate violence on his turf. When my wife and I pretend we're going to fight, he steps between us and barks at the aggressor. He is a hoot.
2:02 this made me really happy actually, knowing that my dog and i always have staring contests whenever we look at each other at the same time
1:48 Putting a paw on you, could also mean that wants to get your attention or claim you as its property.
LOL THE LAST PART IS SO FUNNY
bruh my dog look at me like patrick bateman
😂🗿
6:52 the pix of the real dog is a superb example of a dog saying, "I am absolutely NOT going to hurt you, no matter what. You may even take my yummy bone. I actually like you. Please don't be scared of me."
NOTICE the front teeth exposed as a 'smile.' The fangs are NOT exposed, not ready to bite without biting their own lip.
Notice it's not making any sudden moves, nor on its back which is often a fighting technique.
_[edited] to add, click the blue number (__6:52__) to go directly to this portion of this video._
_as opposed to __7:18__ no whites showing, fangs_ are _bared, full upper lip drawing back. This one WILL bite you if you persist in whatever you were doing a quarter of a second ago_
This is really helpful, thank you, this will definitely help me understand me dog more ☺
My dog had to be put to sleep Thursday; he was a good boy. I will love him forever.
Just read you're post. Very sorry to hear that. I had to put down my mini doxie 2 years ago. Still miss him terribly. Finally got another mini 2 months ago. A sweet little guy. After grieving for as long as you need, please get another one. It won't replace your baby, but can help you and give a dog a loving home.
Take care.
i just have one more question, what about side eyeing? My dog does it too me when she is sleepy. or when she is feeling visous or thinks i'm gonna take her treat, or when she is ignoring me. she does it alot! i just want to know what it means.
I think for the sleepy part, making sure your safe before sleeping and all the rest is a territorial things. They did say never go near a dog while it's eating or it's gonna think you're taking it's food. So it isn't too big of a deal it's just territorial side eyeing I believe. And, the ignoring, is probably being sassy as well. A lot of dogs can be sassy too so you might have a sassy dog XD
My parent’s husky used to talk! He would come to her and when she asked what she wanted she would say “out”. She called my mother “mama” always which I don’t understand because all of the rest of us called her Mom. She said lots of other words too but I can’t think of them right now!
So cute,my dog answers me all the time,I'll ask her,is that good?? She go,,ah huh,I swear she talking to me
"Your dog will not fake emotion."
My dog: "MOTHER, MOTHER I AM AFRAID MY PAW HAS BEEN SNAPPED IN HALF."
In reality: *He stepped on a leaf and got a fright.*
My dog: “OMG I have to go potty soooo bad, I might not make it. We gotta go.”
In reality: Spends 20-30 minutes examining various trees and bushes, sniffing everything, and eating things that aren’t food. Spends 5 seconds at the end of that to squeeze out a quick pee.
Me: “What happened to all that urgency? Thought you had to go potty sooooo bad.” 😒
Thanks for the information ✨
Can you make a video why do some dogs when we open the door they run out or bark at the people that are out side please
Good video. It's kind of a "Sesame Street" of understanding dog behavior, but useful.
My dog was a rehome and he was 6 yrs old when I got him. He growls whenever we try to carry or hug him. What does it mean?
He may not like to be picked up or touched. Possible he was previously abused.
Many dogs don't like to be touched. Particularly on the underbelly as their viral organs are in this spot. Best to go slow and do not put your hand above their head.. keep your hand near eye level so they see it at all times but not close enough where they can bite it.
Chris Reher you got no idea of how many people doesn't know this facts. I already knew them but always nice for those you doesn't yet.
My dog gets the zoomies after a long walk or play session. Hes happy as a clam when we are walking and fetching outside. As soon as we get home though, he goes nuts. It honestly feels like his way of saying "I LOVED THAT".
Our Dog and I Thank you🙏✌️
Thanks for the information

"Dogs lick you for many reasons, they may want to show you affection and love"
My dog: here, you have 1 crumb on your hand I'll fix that *eats whole hand*
YAWNING is also a proactive calming communication if a dog feels *_someone else_* (including you!) may be feeling stressed.
They may also do it to be polite while asking you to do something. "No Biggy, but, wanna feed me now? Or play? Play is good! Or a sample? Of what your eating!"
Yawning at a dog can let you help calm them from any visible distance. Idly look away while yawning.
_[edited to add] __7:55__ goddamnit those puppies are obviously sleepy! Thanks for confusing us!_
my CKCS "Jack" will sit down and wag his tail between his legs...most people laugh because at first it looks like the little guy has a "Big Friend"...nope just his tail, and he isn't cowering, just sitting (excitedly)when he really wants to run around and play with the strangers.
Thanks for such useful information..
My dog hunches over when I trim her nails to try to get out of it. I've never cut her quick. I'm not sure that she's scared exactly, more like she just really doesn't like it. Like trying to climb outta the tub before her bath is over.
Thank you for this video, now i can know my dogs body language and spend more time with him
This is great information so whenever I get another dog I'll refresh with watching this again
Anyways God bless everyone who comes across this comment ✝️
That animated corgi looking dog always gets me smiling 😁
I saw a video saying if they put there paw on your leg or so its a sign of dominance and you should firmly remove there paw so is that true?
This is something creepy. In the middle of the night our dog barking towards my bed and seems like he didn't recognize me while im asleep. It woke me up and had a goosebumps all over my body.
We just experienced this last night, our dog randomly started barking while we were in bed just staring at us like he didn’t know who we were.
Yikes! What kind of dog is it? Unless it's a small dog that can't do damage, I'd keep get a lock for my bedroom and not let it sleep in my bed. People have gotten mauled in their sleep, so that's not something to take a chance on.
@@Alex-eh9bm the dog could see what our humans eye couldn't. You had a companion in your bed or room which the dog only can see.
What's the breed of the dog on the left at 2:16 Thanks
A Doberman I believe!
I was owned by a Great Dane for almost (3mos. Shy of)14 years n i loved her like no other! She loved me too. She loved me enough for me to... even years after her death I still miss n mourn her.. That girl dog would NOT KISS ME THO!!!😂❤lmao I've never felt love that deeply bfor from a dog but she just WOOD NOT kiss any of us! Lmao in all those yrs...I can count on 1 hand how many times she kissed all of us combined! Smh she wasn't a kissy kinda girl lmao smh
Funniest dog Id ever met...no kissing tho. None! Nope! Notta! Lmao ZILCH!😂❤ smh crazy ole lady dog lol
RIP

Thank you love from India 🇮🇳🔥
This is awesome. Thank you!
How do I do the tail thing with a frenchie..?
That’s so cute! My Archie does the stretch bow :). And my Mamba does the belly up for rubs. I notice he also does that to look cute so we won’t be mad at him for peeing somewhere he shouldn’t too. Dogs are clever.
Awwww my dog, Sally, always put her paw on my leg or hand. i always tought that it meant to caress her more.
Thank you!
Informative Video
This site rocks! Thank you!
My 8 week old pup always scratches and licks himslef randomly whenever I try to train him. And sometimes during play. Kinda feel bad about this since he arrived a few days ago. What should I do?
thank you, 7 months old Liza😍
Thank you for the video.😊🥰
I thought the raised paw meant pointing at prey, my Beagle/Brittany mix used to do that then would pull on the leash towards the target. I noticed even a plastic bag would sometimes get her going.
OMGGGG i was so scared because my whole family left and told me to watch over my dog and she stood next 2 the door crying and im like does she hate me??? i give her everything then i went and gave her a piece of bacon and peanut butter than she cuddled on me im like oh..this is confusing so i searched up this video and the end just helped me
Very helpful
I love my dog I have 5 of them but one of them is kinda weird cuz they wag their tail but their ears flattened against head they like me also scared is that a problem? I didn't hurt him or anything he also likes to go under the couch and bed he only comes out afternoon:(
My dog stares intently in my eyes when she’s trying to remind me it’s 5pm and time for her dental chew. She’s never aggressive.
Such a helpful channel 🍻
Okay. So this one stray dog which lives near the area where i live, i do feed him with bones often during the night time for 2 weeks now. And today when i saw him outside my home, i called out to that dog and he came to me running swinging his tail and he was "Jumping" multiple times and putting both his paws on my legs trying to reach higher and spinning and making all kind of noices and all lol and i was backing up lol. What is is trying to tell me ? Can someone tell me ?
Why does the dog do that when it sees me ?
So true thumbs up
I had a question
When I talk to my 2month old pomerian puppy he does not looks at me
Him: avoiding eye contact
Me: idk where my pug is looking tbh, one eye is looks one way and the other looks the other way lmao
How do I understand my pug hes talil is curly
Nice video, will be useful for lots of people
My dog shakes when she doesn’t get something she wants. It’s like, resetting her brain. It’s so funny and interesting!
Wow! Thank you so much - excellent lesson.
Hi, I have my russian terrior 4 years, she was always near me. I played with a tennis ball, throwing it and she fetching it and bring it to me. From October 2021 my sister in law came to stay with me and since she came my dog suddenly went and layed in her room and even later didn't want to listen to me. It got worse, now she doesn't want to lay in my room during the day or near me, only during night time when my siste r in law goes to bed. Now she does'nt chase the ball at all, she just runs to my sister in law's room all the time. She doesn't eat like she used too. Can you help me, I don't know what is going on with my doggy?
1:59 my dog slapped me
My dog hates me 😭😭 he's avoiding eye contact and doesn't give attention. I realised this after this video. I never do anything to it. I even give his lunch and daily I'll give him a hug he just never gives attention other than while i bring him food please give any tips to fix this and I mean it.
