Find out what your dog says with their tail here, and get a free personalised session

Your dog’s tail is an extraordinary communication tool. Together with posture, it is the primary means by which they signal their state of mind. Here are 5 significant examples.

• Tail hanging and relaxed: the dog is quiet, at ease, available for interaction.
• Tail steady and horizontal: the animal is alert and anxious.
• Low tail or between legs: the dog feels uncomfortable, afraid or feeling abandoned.
• Vertical tail: the dog asserts its authority over a situation, communicating dominance.
• Tail wagging: if the movements are wide, usually this is an expression of positive excitement (joy, enthusiasm); if the movements have a narrow radius, it may signal agitation.
