Bringing You Toys

Do not assume that your dog wants to play just because they have a toy in their mouth. One theory says that they want to please you this way. They consider you the alpha and want your respect. Another theory claims that this is their way of showing that they trust you. He has so much trust in you that he brings you such a valuable object. Of course, it might also mean that he loves you so much that he wants you to enjoy his prized possession. You might hurt his feelings if you throw the ball away after this!

When Dogs Yawn

Humans tend to yawn when they are bored or tired. However, dogs do this when they feel safe and secure. For them, it is a sign of submission. If you see a dog yawning 15 times, it means they feel relaxed. However, it can also be a sign of stress or anticipation. When a dog is in the vet’s office, numerous yawns might reflect their nervousness. When they do this before a walk, it can be a way to keep their enthusiasm in check as well. Like humans, they also do it to show how tired they are.
