Bringing You Toys

Just because you see a toy in your dog’s mouth doesn’t mean they’re in the mood to play. Dogs supposedly hold their toys to please their owners and to show that they trust you; they see you as the alpha and look for your respect. It may also simply mean that your little fur-ball wants to bring you his prized possession, aka Mr. Turkey.

When Dogs Yawn

When humans yawn, we’re usually tired or bored. Dogs, however, yawn when they feel secure and safe. If a dog yawns 15 times, it means they’re relaxed. But on the other hand, it can also signal that they’re stressed. A dog will probably yawn many times when at the vet’s office, signaling their nervousness. If your dog yawns before a walk, it’s their way of curbing enthusiasm. Just as we do, dogs also yawn when they are tired.
