Your dog laying down when you approach could mean:

Submissive behavior – Showing respect or deference

Trust & comfort – Feeling safe around you

Play invitation – Ready for fun and interaction

Fear or anxiety – If paired with avoidance signals

Training response – Learned behavior from past reinforcement

Observe body language for context and ensure your dog feels secure!

Do you tell a dog to lay down or to lie down?

Yes dogs do lay down but you have to teach them to. It is a long process but if you work at it you can acomplich a smart dog. First you say sit. Do not scream but say in a stern voice. Then push them down to the ground until in a laying position. Try not to hurt them but do conrtol them. Please do not kick or hit your or someone else's dog. It can really hurt the dog. You reapeat this process about six or seven times a day until they do it on their own. Also when they lay down by themselves give them a treat or pet them. If you want to you can also give them a treat or pet them when you push them down and they stay down. Good luck on training your dog!
