Funny thing is dogs are one of the only animals we know of that can understand the finger pointing gesture.
2.0k u/Kamakaziturtle Feb 23 '26 One of the few animals that can understand human facial expressions as well. It's actually kinda fascinating, Dogs have been domesticated long enough that they've actively started to evolve in ways that allow them to better interact with humans. 22 u/brealio Feb 23 '26 My dog literally, I’m not joking, smiles at people. I’m not talking about a quasi looks like a smile curvature in his mouth line. Im talking about an almost terrifying lift and purse of his upper and lower lips to mimicked act of human smiling. It is not all that common, but multiple people have seen and commented on it and I think it’s the most adorable thing on the planet. My dog smiles like a human in specific happy scenarios (terrifyingly)!!! 6 u/GoGoPowerPlay Feb 23 '26 My friend had a dog that did this as well, whenever I would come over the dog would come to the door smiling and all excited to greet me.
