@internationalwolfcenter: A chin rest occurs when one wolf rests its chin on another individual's back, shoulders, or head. You can watch this short ethogram video to learn more about this behavior.

mac :
so if it is used to show dominance, why did the two wolves at the end switch who was doing the chin resting? apologies I am just a bit confused

Hasn’t “dominance” been debunked? I think it’s just friend behavior

my lab used to do this to me all the time. if I'd sit down she'd do this to me all the time even as she got older and our dynamic changed from pups (young us) to both of us as adults she still did it.

the last two chin rested each other. I think it's just a snuggle.
