I don’t really understand that comment about his confidence Sweetypye ??? On the sheet i have from Bev about dog’s body language dodger is clearly A.
A This is the assertive, challenging posture: The ears are up, the tail is raised, and the chest is puffed out. It is trying to become as large as possible. By this position, the dog is saying, ‘Im the manager and want to be in control of this situation’ to another dog, and sometimes a person. It is a communication of confidence, and how the second dog or person responds will determine the outcome. If the second dog or person does not offer appeasement or disinterest then it is possible and attack will occur.
I can see dodger doing each step when we are out on a walk.
