First, understand the emotions expressed in the eyes of dogs: 1. When they look at you with their eyes, they may want to be hugged or play with you. Their eyes may be gentle and a little shy; 2. When you talk to them or play sounds, they may blink, using this method to indicate that they are listening.
3. If they look hatred or hostility, it may be that they want to stop you from doing something, that is, they want to get your attention and express something; 4. Their vigilant eyes may indicate their uneasiness or anxiety, they may also be worried about something; 5. If their eyes are shining, they may be ready to hunt down or grab some food or test; 6. When their eyes are soft and innocent, they may be wanting to pay attention and feel safe. By better observing the dog’s eyes, you can better understand their thoughts so that you can better communicate and understand each other.
The eye contact between dogs and humans or other animals is very short, so long staring is a precursor to attacks and warnings, but this is mainly aimed at strangers or animals.
If the dog keeps using eye contact for the owner, it may be because a certain need is not met, such as hunger, wanting to play ball or frisbee, etc. The dog will generally make corresponding guidance actions. When hungry, it will use its pitiful eyes to look at the owner and then the food bowl, or even walk to the food bowl.
It is best to have frequent eye contact between the owner and the dog. Studies have shown that when the dog and the owner look at each other, a large amount of oxytocin will be produced, which can make the brain feel happy and enhance the relationship between the dog and the owner.
But it does not require a long time. It is best to be performed at intervals. For example, stroking the dog while looking at each other intimately will make the dog more comfortable to get along with the owner and like the owner more, especially after the needs of the dog are met by the owner.
