Question

What posture is a dog displaying if she is leaning away from your, body lowered, ears back, tail down, showing whites of her eyes and the corners of her mouth pulled back.

Answer 1

Answer: Fearful and worried posture

Explanation:

Since dogs cannot talk, their body languages are used to interpret whatever emotion or feeling they may be experiencing.

When a dog is afraid, she tries to look small. She lowers her body and and leans away so that her center of gravity is over her hind legs to  make a quick retreat easy. She also puts her tail down and ears flattened back to her skull. Her eyes also look rounder than normal and she shows the whites of her eyes (whale eyes).

All these tell that a dog is scared and worried or feeling tense.
