Dogs really CAN talk

Have you ever seen a dog with a waggly tail and thought: "Oh, what a friendly puppy"? That wagging tail may not be sending the same message you're receiving. A wagging tail that's stiff and upright and one that is relaxed and sweeping are saying two entirely different things.

A friend of mine sent me a video that I think everyone should see, especially parents and their children. Called "Zoom Room Guide to Dog Body Language," it will show you postures that demonstrate the difference between nervousness and alertness, relaxation and stress, and fear and worry. It will also show the danger signs that can help people keep themselves, their children and their pets safe.

It's from Zoom Room Dog Agility and you can see it on YouTube or the Zoom Room website. Check it out. It may just be the best 5 minutes you can spend online today besides Bradenton.com. Here's the link:
