A dog that likes to tilt its head to the side always looks incredibly cute.

The dog immediately seems so surprised, naive and funny.

Not all dogs "delight" their owners with such a cute habit. Therefore, it is worth understanding why the animal tilts its head at all.

What is the reason for such curious behavior?

Experts remind us that dogs in general are very open and simple creatures, especially when it comes to family.

The dog is not afraid to show his true emotions and "thoughts".

A tilt of the head means that the dog is extremely surprised by something. In most cases, this behavior is typical for young dogs.

They don't have enough life experience yet, so many sounds, smells and movements surprise them.

But over time, the dog accumulates enough knowledge to not show its surprise.

Therefore, you can only “enjoy” the tilt of your head for a certain period of time.
