Have you ever looked at a dog and wondered what it might be feeling? Dogs don’t use words, but they are excellent communicators if you know how to read the signs. Their tails, ears, eyes, and body posture all send important messages about their emotions. A wagging tail doesn't always mean a dog is happy—sometimes it could mean they're nervous or unsure. Flattened ears might show fear, while a relaxed posture could mean the dog is feeling calm and safe. In this activity, you’ll match different dog body language cues—like tail position, facial expressions, and overall stance—to the correct emotions such as excitement, fear, aggression, or curiosity. By learning to interpret these signs, you’ll better understand how a dog is feeling and how you should respond. This helps keep both you and the dog safe and builds stronger bonds with our four-legged friends. Whether you're meeting a dog for the first time or trying to understand your own pet better, this activity will help you become a confident and kind dog communicator. Let’s learn to speak their language—no woofs needed!
