So, help him navigate the situation When the dog’s tail is wagging rapidly, this means he admits that you are in charge [Situation #2] The tail is raised and tremors slightly. This means your dog is issuing a challenge to your authority because he considers himself to be in charge of the situation. In this case, your dog sees himself brave and strong. He is in a good mood and trying to say “I’m proud of myself. I’m feeling great!” [Situation #3] The tail is tucked between the legs. The tucked tail is a sign that the dog is scared, afraid of pain, or feels uncomfortable. Most often the dog tucks his tail between his legs when he is really afraid of something or someone.

My patients Golden Lab Retriever wanted me to rub her belly almost constantly it seemed. It got tiring so I'd sit on the carpet and do it. I thought she was just being a spoily to the point of OCD :)lol. The family told me she had liver cancer a week before she died. I'm glad to have helped give her some comfort. RIP Jessie.

When dogs flop on their belly in front of you, It means they understand you are Dominant, That means when they are sitting up straight and you randomly lie down next to them, Or in front, According to the dog, You are showing your dog is Dominant, Which may encourage bad Behavior
Either that is also true, Or it just wants a freaking Belly Rub, Give himm!
