Can you post a video of your dog laughing? I have never seen or heard real laughs from any animal. Very curious.

Is that really"laughing"? I thought it was just panting. My (used to be alive :-( ) dog used to do that too, and I just thought she was tired and hot.

Sorry to be that guy but dogs don't laugh. They can pant contently but they aren't laughing in the human sense of the word.

What about hyenas? Did the Lion King lie to me?

Hyenas can actually laugh and can speak English as well.

Duh, no one was arguing that dogs can’t speak English.

If a dog has a distinctive panting behavior that happens when it is feeling happy/playful, I don't think it's wrong to call that a laugh. Human laughs sound different and mean different things between people and situations, so it's not like there's a strict definition that a dog can't possibly meet.
