head down supposedly releases endorphins.  Calms and soothes.  I
trained my berserk stonewall to do a head down and he will do it and
then instantluyu go back to being too excited.  but i have always
noticed when we go to a new place and they emerge from the trailer
nervous and blowy, if I will let them lower the head and graze a
little then they settle down immediately.
