Although more and more places banning dog tail cutting, there are still many people looking for information about the reasons why there is so much controversy about it. You can really suffer if I cut my dog's tail? Is it really so counterproductive, although the aesthetic benefits that require? Then look at what we do our pets with the tip.
Dog's tail
Lack of resources is better, dogs using signs and gestures to know your mood and express their emotions and all the physical, the tail is its most expressive (followed, of course, the ear.) Almost every movement he wants to say something, whether directed at us or other dogs that may cross or alive. Hence the importance of preserving, to socialize and have no problem with the behavior of others of their species. This is definitely the closest thing to a human facial expression that may have a dog. In addition, the movement of the tail favors the smell of pheromones in animal emanation we have anal glands, the other main streets barking.
Movement and meaning
Moving in a circle. With this step, the dog show empathy, fun and playfulness.
Rapid movement from one place to another. Involve agitation, happiness and joy, but also impatience and anxiety. In fact and contrary to popular belief, in this case the dog is torn between desire and fear. I want to do something, and fear what happens if you do. The most obvious example is given in the food: if you look closer you are the owner of the bowl-eating, rather than having the tail relaxed, began to tremble, suggesting that food intake produces happiness ... but also doubts about the man who could seize it.
Short, quick motion. Added to the ear is folded back and show off your teeth, no doubt is about to attack.
The tail is raised, with the top up. It is 100% dog-language: the tail is fully raised, the animals estámostrando authority. Is the dominant dog, and the harder it will make you change your mind.
Raised but bending curve. This position has nothing to do with this, because this way your pet shows confidence and self-control.
Tail extended horizontally. This means that the dog is in response to something that interests them.
Tail extended horizontally and tense. In this case, usually with spiky hair, the attention generated by the confrontation possible. A dog with his tail rigid and horizontal does not always want to attack, but not willing to let anyone invade your land and you question their authority. Better.
Tail downward, away from the hind legs. This means that the animal is calm, relaxed and at ease.
Lower tail, near hind leg and with a little lateral movement. This is a way for dogs to show their insecurity. Is restless and did not like what is in front or around, do not believe it. Is the step immediately prior to ...
Tails between their legs. Here is the feeling of fear. These animals are very afraid, afraid of being attacked. You can show this, or it may indicate a delivery to the dominant members of the herd. Certain motions are very important and is one of the biggest losses if you cut off the tail, as placed between the legs also contain pheromones, prevent and thereby separating the "privacy" of animals.
What happens if the dog has no tail (and ears)?
If the owner decides to cut off body parts of animals, it can have serious problems with other dogs. Unable to show dominance or submission may lead to violent confrontation because it can be interpreted as a challenge, and on the other hand, humans can not know whether dogs can approach with confidence or better (for both animals and that) the specific steps to improve coexistence.
