The fact that someone like this is speaking and the room is filled with those who are sold out to these view speaks volumes as to why dogs are in such a mess.

So can we sort of generalise the fact that when dogs have their ears back,it is a sign of stress?

this is so true..."The people that know the most, the higher up you go, the more they say, "Hmmm, I don't know". The lower down the food-chain you go, the more they seem to read minds!".

its not misleading is a very effective way of showing people with less knowledge in the subject to see what the expression looks like. In a video you need to no this expression already to really catch them the second they are happening so i give my credits to her info very good .

very misleading, absolute wrong approach to this subject. Video might be far more effective. images do not tell anything other than dogs have expressions.
