Surely you have noticed the fact that dogs seem to wink at us and other animals.
Of course, a dog is unlikely to put the same meaning into this gesture as a person.
So it will be interesting to figure out what this could mean.
Why does a pet "wink"?
Calm and relaxed
If the dog looks contented, happy and at this moment begins to blink actively, then you can be sure of one thing: the animal feels great.
At such moments, the dog is trying to communicate that he definitely likes everything.
Fear and discomfort
It is important to understand that other signs will also indicate this. If the dog is fidgeting, trying not to look you in the eye and starts winking, then the animal is clearly stressed.
Try to determine what this reaction is associated with.
Physiology
Experts note that a dog can "wink" at the moment when it is very sleepy. In such cases, literally within a few minutes, the dog will go to sleep.
Diseases
If a dog "winks" on a regular basis, the cause may be a disease. The most common possible causes are a swollen eye and blepharitis.
