>>4778583Yes, dogs can smile and have at least two smiles with the same social functions as in humansThey have the “joy expression” which is clearly a smile with a relaxed dog pulling the corners of their lips back a little and loosening their jawAnd they have the nervous grin, also called the submissive grin which is what it should also be called in humans because the only people who do it are women and betas
>>4778715Oh wow it only took 4 replies for an incel to show up. New record.

>>4778583Baring your teeth at others is a sign of aggression to almost every other mammal. They can smile with their eyes

>>4779261don’t use words you don’t understand
>>4778874It was only ten years ago calm down
>>4778713what happpens after these sorts of things in America? do the owners get charged with anything? does the dog get put down?
>>4780005It’s actually 12 now being fair
>>4780042Any number of things can happen depending on the state In this case the dog survived and I don’t think anyone was charged, the woman walking it didn’t even actually own it iirc
>>4778713It's always a fucking woman Nobody in the crowd ever gets that you grab the hardest thing around and slam it's head over and over until it releases
>>4778583no you retard>>4778874there are so many videos nowadays about everything relating to internet culture that even zoomers know about stuff that happened 10-20 years ago
>>4780383Yes retard, dogs can smile. Also, they lick you because they like you.
>>4780393they don't smileif a dog is opening its mouth it's to breathe or sweat or growl or any other purpose
>>4780393not even other primates smile, showing your teeth is a sign of aggression
>>4778583yes
i do believe that my dog does show that he is content by smiling. Not showing the teeth tho, just curling his mouth in a smile like pattern
>>4780396>>4780952Yes retards dogs smile. Unfortunately the public version of the article had its images replaced with ads. They also do a nervous grin that is not an aggressive snarl.Sorry your info comes from reddit “experts” and the anti-anthropomorphization crowd that is more interested in justifying animal abuse than truth
https://www.sciencefocus.com/nature/translating-wolf-facial-expressions-could-help-us-understand-domesticated-dogsOne finding that has stood out from the research is a remarkable similarity with certain interactions used by primates in similar social settings. These include the ‘jaw-drop’, in which a wolf or primate relaxes their lower jaw and pulls back the corners of their lips so it looks like they’re grinning without showing their teeth. It’s an expression both species use to signal playtime and, in wolves, is different to the submissive grin, seen in expressions of ‘friendliness’, where the mouth is shut.It’s these similarities with primate expressions that have led the Durham group to the theory that wolves’ communication skills may have played a key role in their domestication. Stone-age people and wolves could perhaps ‘talk’ to each other by using facial expressions.Thousands of years ago, human and wolves may have formed alliances partly because they could interact through a range of signals, which we can still see today, albeit in a diminished from, in our domestic dogs. It seems obvious when you think about how much we rely on people’s expressions to pick up on their meaning.…“Dogs have more of a brachycephalic [shorter, flatter] face; long, flopped ears; long, pendulous lips; and a kind of weird hairdo that can hide their ears and eyes,” explains Hobkirk. “These are all features that can hinder communication. In breeding for looks, we’ve got rid of the more natural morphology that the dog needs.”TLDR:Dogs smile. But not YOUR dog. Your dog is too ugly to smile. Only husky, malinois, japanese akita, etc owners and other such gigachads can enjoy the company of a dog with facial expressions.
>>4781029basedreal dogs win again
>>4780042we give the pit a medal and blame it on golden supremacy
>>4780378you just need to take off the lead, make a slip loop and choke it out
>>4778583Between dogs it is normally a sign of agression. But I'm sure they understand that a smiling human is something positive
>>4778874Dude, creepypasta is peak zoomer shit. Up there with FNAF and the bee movie.
>>4781403pretty sure it’s an ironic post
>>4778713Unironically for anyone watching this, the best way to get them to release is genuinely to jam something up their arse. No, seriously.
>>4781026I dont even browse reddit you schizo furry
>>4781724I’ve heard this too. Either that or choking them out.
>>4778713Bloodchoke the fucking pitbull.
>>4781724This, and choke the fucker out with your arm or their collar if they have one. In more serious cases start bashing the dogs skull in with a rock or 2x4. ofc guns work better. I'm amazed how many people I see in these videos doing nothing or weakly hitting the dog.>>4778713I don't want to hurt or kill a dog but I stop caring once it attacks my dog or a person.
>>4783433is it a good idea to carry a knife when walking your dog, in case a pitbull attacks?
>>4785186I mean, you probably shouldn’t go flashing it around in public but it’s better than nothing

>Religion is the smile on a dogWhat did she mean by this?
>>4785656That she's retarded because dogs actually do smileFor a long time people thought dogs had no thoughts or no emotions and were simple input output machines that had instincts and were "conditioned", because that best aligned with protty fake-christianity's beliefs
