The History

Dog Language Interpreted

Wagging their tails – Puppies show love by wagging their tails.  You can tell how much your puppy has missed you by wagging their tail as fast and hard as they can.  It is also telling you that it is okay for you to come closer.

Licking – Licking is another sign of puppy love.  When a puppy aims for your eyes or mouth, they are telling you that they are in tune with you.

Jumping – Jumping or leaping are messages of love.  Jumping is an action with an aim to lick at your face.  A proper doggy greeting, you should get down to their level so that they don’t get hurt while jumping.  Or teach them to sit.

Puppy Jumping

Rolling Over – puppies love to roll over and have you rub their bellies.  This position puts the puppy in a vulnerable position, and it declares trust and affection.  Also your puppy is showing through body language that they offer no threat and want to be friends with you.

Scent – dogs are attached to your scent.  Sometimes they will carry around a dirty sock or shoe, because it smells like you.  Your scent will calm a puppy down.

Lost – when you puppy thinks that you have left them, and they start looking for you; and they finally find you they just want to be close to you; as they love having you around.
