Holistic Daily Pet Vitamins for Cats and Dogs
Dog body language is the primary sign for dogs to communicate with you and the world around them.
Your dog is constantly communicating with you. Think of your pup as an open book—he or she is continually signaling their emotional state and intentions to you—you need to know how to read them.
Although a dog may bark or growl, their primary communication with you and the world around them is through body language. Some physical displays are obvious to a dog’s human family. Other displays are easily misinterpreted. For instance, you might automatically assume a dog is aggressive when they show their teeth—but look closer, and you’ll see that their teeth are close together, their ears are pulled back along with their head, their eyes are squinting, and their body is lowered and leaning away… the dog is actually showing submission.
Okay, let’s break down some common emotional states and the corresponding physical cues, so you can better understand your furry baby!
1. FRIENDLY AND APPROACHABLE:
Body/ Stance: Loose. The weight is flat on the feet
Ears: Neutral position, can be up (but won’t be forward)
Tail: Up, out, neutral, possibly wagging
Head: High/ neutral
Eyes: Normal, neither larger nor smaller than normal
Mouth: slightly open with the tongue exposed
2. ALERT
Body/ Stance: Normal, possible forward lean. Standing tall, maybe on tip-toes
Ears: Forward, perked up toward the sound
Tail: Horizontal (not bristled)
Head: High/neutral, forward
Eyes: Normal or slightly wider
Mouth: Closed (Sometimes slightly opened, but with teeth covered)
3. DOMINANT AGGRESSIVE
Body/ Stance: Stiff, leaning forward
Ears: Forward, slightly spread to side to form wide “V”
Tail: Raised and bristled
Head: Forehead may show wrinkles, nose wrinkled
Eyes: Narrow, staring challengingly
Mouth: Lips curled with teeth and gums visible.
4. STRESSED OUT
Body/ Stance: Body lowered
Ears: Pulled Back
Tail: Usually down
Head: Low
Eyes: Usually dilated
Mouth: May begin panting
5. PLAYFUL
Body/ Stance: Front end lowered (usually this stance is only held for a moment before breaking playfully away)
Ears: Usually up, or neutral
Tail: Up
Head: Neutral
Eyes: Dilated
Mouth: Open, tongue exposed
More Behavioral Cues
EYES | |
---|---|
Eye Shape/ Characteristics | Meaning |
Larger than normal | Fear, feeling threatened, feeling aggressive, alert |
Smaller than normal | Frightened, stressed |
Squinting | Sign of illness or discomfort, submissiveness |
Direct eye contact | Dogs do not look directly into each other’s eyes because that is a threat. If your dog is making eye contact with you, it may be playful, neutral, or pleasant, but watch body posture and tenseness of facial muscles. If the muscles in the face are tense, this indicates aggressiveness. |
“Whale Eye” | This is when a dog doesn’t look directly at you, but looks at you from the corner of his/her eyes, exposing the whites of their eyes. This usually occurs when the dog is exhibiting “guarding” behavior. An aggressive outburst is likely. |
MOUTH | |
---|---|
Mouth Shape/ Characteristics | Meaning |
Slightly opened, panting lightly, relaxed | Happy, friendly |
Slightly opened with teeth covered | Alert, anxious, curious |
Lips drawn back to expose teeth | Fearful |
Yawn in an exaggerated fashion | Feeling uptight |
Aggressive Pucker | When the lips are forward over teeth and air is exhaled, so the lips look puffy. Meaning: Don’t come any closer |
Lips open, drawn back to expose teeth in a snarl | Aggressive |
EARS | |
---|---|
Ear Position/ Characteristics | Meaning |
Raised higher on head | Happy, friendly |
Up and Forward | Aggressive, alert |
Pulled back slightly | Friendly |
Completely flattened or stuck out to the sides of head | Frightened, submissive |
TAIL | |
---|---|
Tail Position/ Characteristics | Meaning |
Natural position | Relaxed |
Wagging gently, or more forcefully in a circular pattern | Happy |
Held lower or tucked between legs | Submissive or frightened |
Held High | Aroused |
Held stiff and moved rigidly from side to side – like a “flag” | Standing their ground, threatening |
At NHV, we hope to bring health and wellness to your dog. And like all of us, a big part of your dog’s happiness is simply being understood. If you have any questions about your dog’s behavior, feel free to send us a picture or video— our NHV Pet Experts will do their best to help any way we can!

- Support for inflamed muscles and joints in dogs

- May stimulate and improve appetite
- Helps with digestion
Yucca root is widely used in dog food as well as in other pet foods. It is an herb that is highly nutritive as it is rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, protein, niacin, and phosphorus. Yucca contains two very beneficial compounds: sarsasapogenin and smilagenin. These two compounds work on the mucous membranes of the small intestine. These compounds help with the penetration and absorption of minerals and vitamins. Sarsasapogenin and Smilagenin are known as steroidal saponins (phytosterols), which act as precursors to corticosteroids produced naturally by the body.
Steroidal-saponins support the immune function of the body while stimulating and supporting the production of its own corticosteroids and corticosteroid–related hormones. Due to this action, studies conducted on yucca have shown that it may be beneficial and effective for discomfort and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis. Yucca may also be effective as an appetite booster in dogs and may also help reduce the production of urease, which contributes to the unpleasant odors of urine and feces in some dogs.
