Your puppy’s tail is like a tiny, furry mood ring. A hard, full-body wag—where their whole backside wiggles along with the tail—is a dead giveaway of pure joy. If that wag kicks into overdrive the second you walk through the door, your puppy is screaming, “I missed you!”
Compare it to that feeling you get when your favorite song comes on the radio. That’s your puppy’s tail during a greeting. And if they grab a toy and bring it to you while wagging? That’s an invitation to share their happiness with you.
