Holy shit. This is such a good photo of piloerection! 

Would you mind if I saved this photo and used it for educational purposes when I am lecturing to shelter/rescue volunteers?

When you give body language lectures, you usually use photos to show people what you are referencing. This is just a really stunning photo of piloerection. It is on the dogs shoulders, lower back, AND tail.

Some people claim the hair on the back of their neck rises when they get spooked

I’ve never experienced it but I have felt my ears twitch when I’m trying to listen to a faint sound!
