Zoom Room Guide to Dog Play Gestures

A brief visual guide, created by the Zoom Room, to better understand the body language specific to dog play gestures - both the positive ones and the ones to watch out for - as exhibited by adult dogs and puppies when engaged in social activities.

If you're bringing your dog or puppy to socialize with other dogs at the Zoom Room, a dog park, or any other locale, this video will help you understand how dogs communicate with one another so that you can take the appropriate action, if necessary.

Is that a flat-coated retriever I'm seeing in these videos?

@ZoomRoomDogAgility Thanks 4 the video!!! I am thinking about getting a dog so this helps most definitely! (Also quick question: my grandparents have a really mean dog, and I really like her, but ...she is mean, so what do i do to b able to befriend her?)

We have had flat-coats for the last 18 years. They are such fun dogs and I'm not surprised one was in a video about dog play gestures.

Great video. Thanks for posting. I wish I could set this up to play outside several dog parks that I've been to so people would know what is and isn't acceptable.

play nice or dont play...dog parks arent good for all dogs.
