Reply To: Body Language

[Cyndi Cross]

Hi Rachael!
THANK YOU very much for taking the time to read, look & respond.

I know I was kind of cryptic 🤨 … but decided that “a picture is worth a thousand words” … and I didn’t want to influence any opinions, based off of what was happening when those pictures were taken – but maybe there just isn’t enough information for anyone to offer an opinion.

I’ve been reviewing some old Q&A’s where Mike talks about body language, and saw a pic of Allie’s dog, Stormie (with her tail down & relaxed) … I started 2nd guessing myself on the type of dog Lacey actually is (“dominant” vs “confident”) & whether or not I truly understood canine body language. I almost sent the question directly to Allie or Mike, but decided to post in the forum instead. I just want to get either correction or confirmation on my understanding of body language – and possibly give the newer members a learning opportunity.

So, the pictures:
1) fishing with daddy
2) watching dad get ready to water the plants
3) daddy watering the plants
4) intently watching dad do something (I don’t recall what)
5) first thing in the morning (I’m still in bed)
6) in the gazebo

Does this help?
