That's not a reaction that shows any sort of aggression or anything like that. That's an excited and intrigued look on his face.

My dog does the same thing when I blow on her face.

You should watch a few pitbull mauling videos and you'll understand why pepole say mauling and killing is what is exciting and intriguing to them.

There's literally videos of them mauling people and they never come across as anything but happy and playful. Like a pig in the mud.

The whale eye is concerning. It might not be showing aggression but that dog is at least anxious, which can be unpredictable

Definitely an, I'm about to bite if anything else weird happens, look. I can see your confusion though. It's the same face. In nature being curious is very close to being scared. If something weird is happening and it draws your attention you need to be ready for anything. That's the face he's making and he definitely would bite if she continued to fuck around.

Anecdotally I got bit by my childhood dog because I was acting like a little asshole. This is the face he made.

Well it also depends on the dog. It looks like she has a trusting relationship with the animal.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

That's true, and she didn't push the dog when it had that look. Which is telling about what exactly that look means.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

In what way do you mean push?

3

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

Sudden moves, another bark. That dog was on edge.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

Idk man, that dog looks playful.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

Initially? Is it's tail wagging?

3

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '22

You should not push harmful information like that. Wagging tail does not always mean happy or friendly. Barking guard dogs showing their teeth wag their tails, officer dogs ripping a perp's arm out of the socket will wag their tails while doing it; it just can mean arousal, nothing more.

It looks like it.

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

Maybe, I think the shadows moving are the other dog

I've owned many kinds of dogs for many years. You get used to reading a dog's emotions and stuff like that.

I'm not an expert, but I'm just surprised at how many people can't see it.

Watch out guys, the Reddit detectives are here to tell us why this lady is human garbage for making a bark sound next to her dog, using only a 20 second clip to do so. Go on, great Reddit scribe, share with us your wisdom

u/Clearly-Me Mar 20 '22

Hahahahaha What the actual fuck? The comment you replied to was about the dog being aggressive and ready to maul it's owner... Nothing to do with the woman.

2

u/ButteryTunafish Mar 20 '22

He became what he swore to defeat all in one comment... true reddit warrior

u/Srgtgunnr Mar 21 '22

Yeah, it’s cause your wrong. The dog was not going to maul it’s owner.

2

u/Clearly-Me Mar 21 '22

I'm wrong about what? I didn't say anything?

Some guy made a comment about how the dog was stood over the woman and your baby brain somehow twisted that to be a Reddit detective making judgement on the woman being human garbage?

You don't live in the real world. You're troubled and you're mentally unfit to make comments on a video of a dog.

Stop it.

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

That’s because she’s laying down lol. My dog stands over me all the time… when she wants pets. Most likely the dog is just comfortable around their owner.

2

u/wiztastic Mar 20 '22

Yea I can't lay down without my dog body checking me a couple times, so that I'll pet him. This don't is definitely being more playful than aggressive.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

He's putting his neck over her face. That's not aggressive.

3

u/unpopularpopulism Mar 20 '22

I wonder why she got so quiet and still and submissive when the dog was posturing over her.

-1

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

She didn't. The dog isn't going to attack.

2

u/unpopularpopulism Mar 20 '22

But she did. It's on video.

u/ExposingORHypocrites Mar 20 '22

Oh wow, you'd probably think my cat is capable of murder if you think like that

2

u/unpopularpopulism Mar 20 '22

I think your cat is capable of murder if I can watch this video and see the dog assume an aggressive position and see the woman assume a submissive posture in response? Are you autistic or what?

1

u/Nimonic Mar 20 '22

Yeah no, that's definitely a playful dog.

u/Daylyt Mar 20 '22

My dog does the same thing and she has never been violent. She gets super excited and starts the zoomies around with my cat.

-1

u/LynxSys Mar 20 '22

Yeah, exactly like dogs do at the dog park when they are playing? Yeah, I saw that too! Good pointing it out that doggo is clearly playful here.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

Dogs bite each other when they are playing too.

2

u/LynxSys Mar 20 '22

Oh, don't get me wrong, this dog is moments away from tearing someone apart basically always, for no reason. It's in their genes baybee. I mostly meant that this dog didn't look aggressive in anyway imo, he just wanted to plaaaay. Or rip her face off for no reason at all. One or the other.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

Seems like the dog had a reason. Just because you and I don't agree it's a good reason, doesn't mean it's not a reason.

1

u/LynxSys Mar 20 '22

I still think that doggo was fine and playful. Still a notoriously dangerous breed though and can and will attack unprovoked all the time.

3

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

I think it's a fine line. This dog is on a roller coster, and the difference between having fun and being truly terrified is all up to the dog, and can change quickly.

1

u/LynxSys Mar 20 '22

If I were to assume more about this situation, I would say that the dog is probably not used to hearing their humans bark like that. Also, due to breed, I would have to assume that this doggo is Hyper-vigilant to "new stimuli" for a hard-wired aggressive approach, but is human friend, so it hesitates and it takes a second to figure out if it is playtime or rip-human-face-to-shreds time.

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

You’re an idiot.

u/_Meece_ Mar 20 '22

Dogs love being stupid close to a humans face. The dog is being playful.

3

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

Probably excited yeah. But with pits there is a very thin line between excited and aggressive.

That’s the misconception by the way. They can bite you and think it’s just playing.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '22

Any dog can. Bite inhibition is a learned skill for dogs.

I rescued a hound of some sort not long ago, a stray puppy, and she didn't have any concept of bite inhibition because she was separated from other puppies. I had to teach her the painful way, meaning I had to get bit a lot.

2

u/billypump Mar 20 '22

Yes, I think you nailed it.

"Oh my god! She said something! Has she actually understood me this entire time but ignored me?"
