dominant or submissive behaviour ?

with my rabbits, when I reach out to stroke them, they put their chins to the ground and close their eyes, and look quite content

is this dominant behaviour and they are expecting me to groom them or is it submissive and they recognise I am the boss :? ?
 
Ditto what Tam said.

It tends to be a non-aggressive dominant act...'Groom me now slave!' :lol:


Mine do that and I did wonder myself if they really liked it or if they were scared of me. We must be so enormous to them.

Gloria my scared bun, will now tolerate being touched a little bit and will sometimes let me stroke her. It has taken a whole year to get to this point! However, I find that the Waggs Carrot Sticks certainly help! I give them one every other day and they love them.
