Do you Speak Tail? by Dr. Gary Richter MS, DVM
Height, speed, direction of the tail all have meanings
Many people think a wagging tail always means your dog is happy...
But your dog’s tail can actually have a lot of different things to say!
And if you learn to speak “tail,”
you’ll get a whole new window into your dog’s life and how they’re feeling.
So today I’m going to boost your wag vocabulary by looking at the two most important ingredients of a wagging tail:
Height, and speed.
Generally speaking, the faster and higher a dog’s tail goes,
the more heightened their emotions are.
So if you spot your dog’s tail pointing straight up like a flagpole —
that’s often a warning your dog is feeling agitated by something in their environment.
Whether it’s another dog, a running squirrel, or even a person that’s setting your dog on edge…
If possible, try and move them into a more relaxed situation.
(A stiff tail is also definitely something to watch for when it comes to dogs you don’t know, because it can be a warning about aggressive behavior.)
On the other end of the spectrum, a tail that’s wagging slowly and close to the ground is often the sign your dog is feeling submissive or nervous.
So if you see this “street sweeping” wag, try to give your dog a little extra encouragement.
A little praise or a simple reassuring pat could help lift their tail — and their spirits!
Which brings us to the perfect Goldilocks wag!
Not too high or low, not too fast or slow,
just a happy little dance that says your dog is loving life.
So if you see that wag — rest assured that your dog is most likely in a great mood.
And if you want to take your tail-reading skills to the next level,
There’s one more secret signal to keep an eye out for...
The direction!
Believe it or not, studies show that dogs wag their tail more to the RIGHT
when they’re happy or confident, and more to the LEFT when they’re feeling scared.
Incredible, right?
So congratulations — now you’re an expert in decoding your dog’s tail!
And one of the greatest skills a pet parent can have is understanding your dog’s feelings.
Because it makes you better at your most important job:
keeping your dog happy and healthy!
To happy and healthy dog years ahead,
Dr. Gary Richter
P.S. They may not be able to speak English, but when it comes to getting what they want…
Most dogs are expert communicators.
What other ways does your dog
“speak” to you?
Do they paw at your leg to ask for some extra love?
Or give you “that look” when they’re hoping for a treat?
Maybe you’ve trained them to ring a bell when they want to go outside...
