Re: How does my dog know to look at my face?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Is it because the sound comes from my face so its just natural to look there? [/ QUOTE ] I think you're underestimating the intelligence of dogs. [/ QUOTE ] I understand that dogs are really smart. That doesnt explain why they know to look at my face.

[ QUOTE ] where do you look at when you look at your dog? [/ QUOTE ] Is this relevant at all? [/ QUOTE ] Are you serious? Look, what humans share in common with dogs is our eyes. You as a human being are intelligent enough to look into it's eyes to gather information about the dog. The dog is intelligent enough to do this as well.

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, but the eyes are the only thing we share in common with dogs that they are intelligent enough to comprehend. For example our brain and organs all function in a similar manner. But the dog doesn't know that it can rest its paw on our chest to see how fast our heart is beating, yet if you wanted you could do this to your dog.

Re: How does my dog know to look at my face?
The dog is going to look at wherever it can find the most information about your intentions. If you are walking across the room and walk past the spot where the leash is hanging, the dog will be watching to see if you grab it. If you are sitting, it will be watching to see if you are paying attention to it, or to get clues as to what sort of mood you are in. Most of those clues are easier to find on your face than anywhere else, unless you are moving.
