What do dogs posture mean?

I've had six dogs, and I find that if the the dog's back is arched upwards when they are standing it means they are either bloated, sick, or about to puke. Standing straight up panting is in pleasure, (with ears up). Standing up straight with slowly wagging or not moving tail with ears up, is looking with interest (when they are curious). Tail between the legs is scared (with ears back.) Ears back while standing up straight is when they feel threatened (w/ tail up, not moving), also barking or growling is an obvious sign. Tail between the legs with ears back, and constant recoiling is feeling nervousness and scared. If a dog is laying down on its side with its stomach exposed is when they are being submissive (and/or rolling on their back).
