This is most often a sign that the dog is watching, waiting. He is feeling playful and wants to run and chase. You need to try to see if the dog's tail is wagging while he is doing this. Usually he is wagging it slowly up in the air behind him, waiting for a chance to start playing, and running around. I think most of the time is a good sign and indicates he wants to play. Enjoy.

it can be for a number of reasons ... the main one would be that the dog "crouch" down is that that's how dogs show submission ... it could be a warring that the dogs is going to jump (attack) at you ...

∙ 13y agoDogs front legs need to bend forwards because so they can walk and run properly. If dogs front legs bent backwards then they would have a lot of problems such as being unable to walk, run, and they would not be able to sit or even lie down. But if you want a dog to be able to do stuff on their own their legs have to bend forward so they won't need support. It's the same with the human. Our arms bend the same exact way and we need our arms to bend forward so we are able to eat, pick up things, carry them and a whole bunch of uses. So keep in mind all animals with four legs, the front legs' joints have to bend forward so they don't have to have support. And the human needs arms that bend forward for doing stuff on our own.

∙ 11y agoDogs have larger paws and generally also larger legs in the back because of the way their body is set up. Their front paws and legs are for steering and stabilization while their back limbs are for the power. An exaggerated version of this is the Rabbit who has very large hind legs compared to their front legs.

∙ 12y agoThe vertical cross-section of the dog's body is greater in front, thus the back legs must be longer to reach all the way to the ground.

Why are your dogs paws cold?
There are at least three possibilities: Ice has torn a gash in the dog's pads; street salt has burned a wound on the animal's feet, or the dog herself, annoyed by pain caused by ice or salt, has bitten her own paws. If your pet enjoys pushing her face into the snow, she also runs the risk of cutting her lips or nose on shards of ice.
How many toes do dogs have on their hind legs?
Dogs have four toes on their front and back paws. However, a little higher up on the leg is the dew claw, which looks a little like a thumb if you have a good imagination. Some dogs are born with dew claws on their front and/or hind legs. If the fifth toe you're talking about sits a little higher up, it is a dew claw. Most dogs born with them have them removed by the breeder when they are puppies or their owners opt to have them removed during spay/neuter surgery.

What is the easiest way to clean mud off of a dog's paws?
I have two large dogs, a golden retriever and a black lab. The battle of the muddy paws is non-stop, especially this time of year in the spring time. I read about the spotless paw dog cleaning glove in my favorite magazine, Real Simple. This glove is super handy and very absorbent. It cleans up both dog's paws easily, is double sided and is machine washable. When the dogs are ready to come in, i grab the spotless paw off of the door handle and put it my left hand. The first dog is stopped at the door and his paws are rubbed with the palm of the glove. After his paws are clean, the same is done for the second dog. If the dog's paws are particularly muddy, I can switch the glove to my other hand and have a completely clean surface to work with for the second dog. This is very handy with two dogs!!!
Why do black labs cross their paws?
They are just resting. This is not really a breed trait, many dogs do this, but you will see it often on dogs, like labs, who have longer legs in proportion to their bodies (also called "up on leg"). For example, the Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound) dogs are more often seen with their front paws crossed than out straight. It is probably the most comfortable position for them when on the floor.
