because dogs have ligaments in they tails casuing them to bend and be able to move
Dogs wag their tails. Tails could sometimes tell the dog's emotion. When dogs wag their tail it means that the dog is happy and want to play. When the dog's tail is not waging but it is down by their back legs means they are sad or scared.
it usually means that it wants to play in my dogs case.if it is growling with it tail between its legs keep your distance.
Foxes do not wag their tails except for a small population resulting from a breeding experiment in Russia. Other than that tail wagging is unique to domestic dogs.
Commonly unlike a dog, if a cat wags its tail its a sign that it is annoyed or wants to be left alone. That's the only thing I know that it means, if your cat wags its tail constantly then it may just be a habit i would check with a vet maybe if it wags it's tail a lot.
When their ears are back and relaxed, the wagging of tail is an indecation of exitment, expessilly in younger dogs, so don't mistake this as for being happy.The whites of a dogs eyes don't show, enstead their eyes have a calm, sort of sleepy look.
so u can tell when there happy
Probably something to do with the fact that dogs show their mood by holding their tails at different heights, so that's already being used in their body language. Plus that fact that it would look stupid top to bottom. (:P)
The reason a dog will still wag it's tail, and express niceness, is because they are so afraid, they have no idea what to do. They are in essence trying to make peace with the person abusing them, and simply trying to remain loyal, despite someone hurting an innocent Doggy.
They do. Often the tails are docked very short, so I suppose this may not be apparent. I suppose it might be possible that the poodle you met had a paralyzed butt.
A cat uses body language. They let others know how they feel with body movements. The tail wagging reflects what mood a cat is in. When a cat comes towards you with its tail held straight in the air or waving gently side to side, this is a friendly greeting. A flicking tail indicates ambivalence - the cat is not sure how it feels. A cat that is being held and is flicking its tail wants to be put down.
A dogs tail bone can definitely be broken. once when my dog was a puppy i slammed the dog and his tail got caught, the vet confirmed its fairly easy for a dog to brake its tail, so be careful!
yes goats have tails their tails are just small.
