What does it mean when a dog streches2007-11-25 2:52:10

Everytime we come home, she'll do a big body strech (like a "downward doggy" in yoga) - what does that mean?

Answers:

It's just a stretch to get the bloodflow to the muscles.

---

It means the dog is stretching. Dogs, unlike a lot of people, know what's good for their bodies and stretch when they get up.

---

It means she just woke up.

---

She's probably just been napping while you were away. Stretching feels good when you've been laying in one position for a long time -- for both humans & dogs.

---

Just means she's been laying down, and needed a stretch before running over to greet you.

---

It means she has been lying down sleeping...its the same reason humans stretch when they wake up...thier bodies/muscles have been motionless for a extended period of time, stretching losens the body up...

---

Perhaps she is made of rubber! ???

---

That's called Puppy Bow,(like "take a bow")that means she wants to play.You'll often see that when a dog is playing with another dog...

---

was she laying down? don't you stretch? she was most likely laying down and had to get her body going again

---

Um... That it is stiff. Your dog is probably lazy, and every time she sees you come home, she probably thinks it is time to get energized and play.

---

They are smarter than us wrt their bodies.

---

She's pretending that she just woke up to disguise the fact that a raging 'poochie party' has been goin on while you were out! Look around for the spilled drinks and pieces of chips and pretzels on the carpet!

---

When and Why do you stretch??? It's the same reason
