What does it mean when a dog’s ears droop down?

There are several situations when a dog's ears are pulled down. One is that the dog is scared, the other is that the dog is giving a warning or preparing to attack. Parents can observe the dog's limbs and expression. Generally, a fearful dog will tremble all over, while a warning dog will assume an aggressive attitude.

Tip:

Dogs can’t speak, so they express their emotions through body language. Their tails and ears are the parts where they express their emotions.
