You can often see dogs stretching at home, but you don’t really understand what it means. Do dogs stretching and humans stretching have the same meaning? Let’s show it below.
1. After waking up, bend and stretch
I firmly believe that many cat slaves have seen their dogs waking up, and they will stretch their bodies and relax their bodies. Just like when people wake up, they will stretch, yawn, and repair their mental essence.
2. After anxiety, relax, when the dog encounters risks, it will be very alert. The whole body must be anxious, protect itself well, and prepare an offensive posture in advance. In that case, the dog is quite tired. When the risk is eliminated, the dog will relax the stress based on stretching.
3. Showing trust to the owner
The dog stretches is mainly a way to stretch the body, but it can also express the dog's emotions towards you. If your dog likes to stretch in front of you, it means that your dog recognizes and trusts you. Because dogs only stretch when relaxing, it shows that they can feel relaxed and safe in front of you.
4. It's too boring. People will yawn when they are bored, and the same is true when they are bored. Dogs stay at home for a long time and often feel mediocre and stretch every now and then. If you get home, it will stretch and wag its tail in front of you, which means invite you to play with it.
5. Express physical discomfort
If a dog feels physical discomfort, it is very likely to relieve physical discomfort based on stretching or curling his body. If it maintains this posture for several minutes, it needs to be taken seriously. The owner should help the dog check his body. If there is any abnormality, he should immediately send it to the pet clinic for treatment.
6. If the pet owner feeds the dog without quantitative analysis, let the dog eat too much, it will make it feel that the abdomen is very stretched, which can easily lead to gastrointestinal indigestion. At this time, the dog will stretch to relieve abdominal discomfort.
