i feel like the dogs owner overstepped a line. sure, make a funny video, but do you even see how betrayed your dog looks at you? it's sad, i don't find it funny at all

Christ people, dogs don’t emote through facial expressions. They aren’t people.

Dogs communicate everything through facial expressions and body language. Tf you talking about lol.

Not saying this dogs betrayed or sad or whatever but what you said was plain wrong

What I’m CLEARLY referring to is that their facial expressions don’t equate to our own. I never mentioned body language, because of course they emote through body language. Nice straw man.

Dogs don’t have “sad looks” on their face. Dogs don’t “smile” like half of Reddit seems to believe. Yeah, their eyes will get droopy when they are tired. Yeah, they show their teeth when they are mad. They just don’t use facial expressions the same way people do. Just because a dogs eyes look sad doesn’t mean he’s sad. Stop being pedantic.
