This Is What Your Dog’s Behaviors Should Tell You

9. When they yawn

When Dogs Yawn

Normally, a human being will yawn when they are either bored or sleepy. However, a dog will yawn as a sign that they feel safe and very secure where they are. Yawning is a sign of submission and if they do this countless times it just shows how relaxed they are.

On the flip side, yawning countless times could just mean that they are stressed or are anticipating something. If you spot your dog yawning severally at the vet’s office, it could just show that they are nervous. If they yawn so many times before going out on a walk, they could be trying to maintain their enthusiasm but just like human beings it could be a sign that they feel tired.
