Understanding your puppy’s behaviour

Understanding your healthy puppy behavior, how they express themselves, and the meaning behind their actions is crucial because you are an important social partner to them, whether they are actively seeking your attention or not.
 

A relaxed or calm posture serves as the baseline for interpreting other body language cues in puppies. Understanding your puppy’s baseline body language helps you notice subtle changes in their behavior more effectively.

When your puppy displays alert body language, it indicates they are attentive and interested in something around them. This reaction isn’t necessarily negative and simply shows their curiosity about specific items or situations. However, it’s important to closely monitor your puppy’s behavior to ensure they feel comfortable and confident in every situation they encounter.

A playful puppy often shows a “bow” posture and exaggerated movements. Playing games with them when they exhibit this body language ensures they receive both physical and mental stimulation.

It’s important to recognise the signs of fear or distress in your puppy. If your puppy appears to be fearful, you should take them away from the trigger and allow them to calm down.

Puppies showing this behavior are fearful and may attack if provoked. It’s crucial to closely observe your puppy’s body language and avoid pushing them too far.

Offensive aggression in dogs is serious and can stem from fear, territoriality, or dominance. Address it with professional help, training, and understanding triggers to ensure safety and rehabilitation.
