If it's down is she scared? If it's up she is happy? When she eats it's down... sometimes in between her legs. When we play and I go after her sometimes it goes down and sometimes it stays up. Like I'll run to her when we are playing and it does that. Is she scared of me or maybe just because something big is coming at her? Please tell me tail meanings!!!! Lol

I have found an up tail is confident or trying to look tough in my Bartok (Who is about the same age as your Bandit) or when he is super focused or teasing me when we play "I got the toy chase me to get it back". Ears are a better tell in my opinion. Ears facing forward is focused, ears off to the sides is relaxed, ears back is afraid or nervous or submissive (or all three!)

A down tail might just be she is relaxed or she is too tired to keep it up LOL

If it goes in-between her legs she might be afraid or nervous, that might mean she is insecure around her food dish if she does it while eating. I would check to how she reacts to things around he bowl, if you use your hands be careful.

And she might go "WOAH big human after me! BOOK IT!" and be nervous for a moment. Bartok has made a St. Bernard best friend and she is HUGE compared to him, he adores her, but he panics when he realizes he is "asking" (taunting) a dog triple his size to chase him. (He jumps up and puts his paws in her side when she ignores him)

He hunkers down and goes submissive puppy when she comes up on him but as soon as she turns her back he is right back up to his tricks. *Shakes head* I swear he is just asking to be sat on.

But I hope you found some sense in my jabber! PUPPY OWNERS UNITE!

The only one I know is if it's up and curled over you have wonde it too tight.

Hughie, you're hopeless!!  << laughing >>
