Dogs may lay down when they see other dogs as a way to show submission, avoid conflict, or signal that they are not a threat. This behavior is a natural part of canine communication and social hierarchy.

Why does your dog cower when other dogs smells its back end?

This is a sign on anti-social behaviour. Sitting down or moving away when other dogs attempt to smell the rear end is a sign that your dog does not want, or does not know, how to react or be social with other dogs. Perhaps your dog didn't get enough socialisation with other dogs when it was a puppy? Try to let your dog spend as much time as possible around strange dogs. If it continues to sit down, keep it moving to prevent this. Hope this helps!
