A wagging tail isn’t always a sign of happiness. Dogs use their tails to express many different emotions. The speed, position, and direction of the wag can indicate excitement, curiosity, nervousness, or stress.

Understanding your dog’s full body language, including their tail, ears, eyes, and posture, helps you recognize how they’re really feeling. This builds trust, strengthens your bond, and helps you care for them even better! 🐾💛
