There may be many reasons why your dog tilts his head to see you smiling. Here are some common possibilities: Understanding ability: Your dog may be trying to understand what you are saying or doing, so he will tilt his head to listen. You seem to be thinking. Curiosity: Dogs are naturally curious. Whether they see new things, sounds, or behaviors, they will be interested. When they see you doing some new and strange actions, they can't help but tilt their heads and stay curiously for a moment.
Eye contact: Dogs are very good at reading human emotions. Sense our emotions through subtle changes in our expressions and eyes. When your dog tilts his head and looks closely at your facial expressions and eyes, he may be trying to establish deeper eye contact with you and express their emotions. In short, dogs tilting their heads to look at you and smiling may be because they are curious about you, make them feel comfortable, or want to establish a deep emotional connection with you.
