Lynn Buzhardt is a veterinary consultant for VCA Animal Hospitals, and says dogs will often wag their tails if they feel threatened, anxious, insecure, interested, curious, or friendly.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To figure out what emotion is being expressed, you have to look at three factors: wag position, wag speed, and context. A 2013 study found a strong right-sided wag (tail wagging more to the right than the left) reflects positive emotions, while a strong left-sided wag reflects negative emotions. If the tail is up it indicates dominance and assertion, and when it\u2019s down it indicates submission.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The faster or slower the dog wags their tail, the higher the level of the appropriate emotion. Tail wagging is also a social indicator\u2014meaning a dog won\u2019t wag their tail unless they\u2019re around other dogs or humans.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Also, dogs are not born knowing how to wag, it\u2019s something they learn from their littermates that they then use to communicate with them, as well as their mother.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>THURSDAY OCTOBER 29<sup>TH<\/sup> \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Russian mask mandate, and Kim Kardashian&#8217;s private island birthday party.\u00a0 (From Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel on Wednesday, October 28, 2020.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>Major League Baseball said Wednesday (October 28th) that L.A.
