Please note that any information that I post here about fuzzy companions is not meant to take the place of the advice of a trained and certified behavorist, trainer or vet. The information I share is based on my experience, training clases I have taken, and books and articles I have read. My pratical experience is based on living with and rescuing dogs (and one cat) since 1990 and volunteering and working at various shelters since the mid 1990s.

Yawning
Did you know that when a dog yawns, it doesn't always mean she/he is tired or sleepy? In dog language, a yawn is often a pacifying gesture. The dog might be trying to say - "no need to be afraid of me. I mean you no harm."
