Showing Discomfort
Yawns usually show how comfortable a dog is, but it can also mean other things too. If you see your pup yawn in public, they may be tired or even anxious and stressed. If your dog behaves this way often in unfamiliar places, pay attention, they may need some training to make them feel more at ease.
Tilting Their Heads
For some reason, we speak in a higher tone when talking to dogs. Many dogs tilt their heads to try to understand what we’re saying. They are great at reading body language and vocal cues, and responding to them too. Dogs associate certain words with walks or treats- they’ll master those ones first! There’s also a theory that dogs tilt their heads so that their outer ears are able to comprehend better.
