You've probably noticed that dogs tilt their heads to the side when listening to a person.
We'll tell you how science explains this behavior of our four-legged friends.
Why Do Dogs Tilt Their Heads to the Side?
Scientists have not yet come to a consensus on this matter.
Some people believe that dogs “tune” their ears by tilting their heads.
Others say that tilting the head allows the dog to better examine a person’s face and recognize their emotions.
Another theory is that dogs simply cannot help but tilt their heads when listening because the same part of their brain is responsible for body language and hearing.
Whatever the case, you can be sure that if your dog tilts his head when you talk to him, he is listening very attentively to you.
