Contrary to popular belief, a dog's wagging tail is not always a sign of friendliness.
In fact, a dog's tail is a "transmitter" of a whole range of emotions.
We'll tell you how to determine what a dog is feeling by the way it wags its tail.
Dogs do use their tails to communicate, but wagging doesn't always mean your pet is happy about something.
According to research, if a dog wags its tail to the right, it experiences positive emotions, and if it wags its tail to the left, it experiences negative emotions.
If a dog stretches its tail so that it becomes an extension of its body, this means that it is interested in something and is curious.
A wagging tail with the tail down means that the dog is nervous. It also indicates that the dog recognizes the superiority of the owner.
If a dog has its tail between its legs, it is experiencing great fear.
If the tail is in a vertical position, the dog is engrossed and excited about something.
Also, this tail position may indicate the dog's readiness to show aggression.
