Are dogs just stretching when they bow forward and backward?In: Dog Behavior |
[Edit] |
Answer
Sometimes, but it also can mean they want to go for a walk or want you to play with them. A good belly rub works all the time.

It can also be whats known as a calming signal.. It could mean they are uncomfortable. But you need to look at the contexts to be able to conclude on why they are stretching..If say they are lying down and then get up and stretch..they are just stretching..if they are out playing with another dog and stretch it could mean that they are uncomfortable.

when they are bowing foward it either means they are stretching or they want to play and when they are bowing backwards they are just stretching.
