my dogs... really smiling?
I have always had dogs most of my life but the current ones have learned something new: to 'smile'! First one of the three Min-Pins would curl up his upper lip & smile- showing a bit of his white upper teeth- when I would praise him for something or even scold him for something. Soon the other two Min-Pins are now doing the same thing! Now the other day the German Shepherd did the same when I went out in the morning to say 'hello' to her! Is this really a smile as we humans whould know it or something else? Definately not a sign of aggression as these dogs can show that also to each other at times over a chew toy & that is not a smile then!
Just curious if others have seen the same in their dogs?
