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.

Answer:

Defensive Threat Posture

Explanation:

Whale eye (whites of eyes showing)

Tail down or fully tucked

Piloerection

Ears back or flatten against head

Pupils dilated

Corners of mouth pulled back

Body lowered

Body leaning backward

A defensive threat posture indicates a dog is being self-protective. This is seen in a dog who is fearful and would prefer to run away from the situation, but may bite if provoked or cornered. Stress signals were offered in the beginning, however ignored and the dog is showing extreme fear.
