Yawning and Blinking in Dogs – Pet tip 217
When it comes to reading a dog’s body language there are many movements and gestures to pay attention to. Some of the gestures are easy to understand. A growling dog is sending a clear message and very few people will mistake the intention of that message. It means that the dog is uncomfortable and you should immediately back off or back away. The growl will likely also come with other gestures like standing forward, ears pointing forward and possibly raised fur. A broad wagging tail is also a clear sign usually associated with happiness and alertness.

Joey was my best friend growing up.
My dad rescued him - he was on his last day at the Humane Society. We never knew what kind of dog he was, but you could not find a more loyal friend. He slept with me when I was sick, sat and comforted me when I cried, and was so full of life. He loved our weekends at the trailer and was very protective of our family.
He was with our family for 13 long and happy years before he had to be euthanized due to a series of illnesses. I know he's watching over us everyday, and we miss him very much.
