Why Does My Dog Put His Head On My Neck?

There are a number of reasons why a dog may put his head on your neck. It could be because he is asking for attention, it could be because he wants to play with you or it could be that he is feeling stressed and needs some reassurance.

If your dog puts his head on your neck, it could be that he is trying to get you to play with him. If this is the case, then you should gently push him away and tell him to sit down before playing with him. This will help you to establish dominance over your pet as well as teach him that this behavior is not acceptable in other situations.

If your dog puts his head on your shoulder while sitting down, then this could mean that he wants some reassurance from you. If this is the case, then pet him gently and give him some treats until he calms down. You should also make sure that your pet has enough exercise every day so that they don’t get bored or stressed at home on their own all day long.

A third reason why a dog might use this type of body language is because they need some reassurance from their owner after being separated for a period of time. For example if you leave them alone at home for several hours each day.
