When my dogs tilt their heads

Yes, seeing a dog tilting their heads is amusing. It is as if they just wish they knew our language. Curiousity? Isn't that a sign of blooming intelligence? I wonder if some dogs tilt more than others? Those little yipey ones probably never tilt their heads. They are so very annoying!

Awww!!! They're so cute when they do that! I guess I would have to agree that they do that when they're curious.

I see my dog tilt his head also when I make sounds ro talk to him. It is like they are really wanting to understand and listen.

My dog does that too and I agree that it does look cute! Sometimes I will purposely tilt my head so she will copy the action. As far as my dog is concerned, she does this in order to earn herself some more pats and attention. My cats do something similar by tilting their heads backward while waiting for a cuddle.

That makes two of us.I simply love it. There is more to pets than calling them merely 4 legged!

I saw my dog tilt its head when he is asking for food. and it is cute, really. that's why i keep on giving him food everything he do it.

Oh, yes! It is indeed a cute cute thing that dogs do. Such an act always comes with a look in their eyes with a query that they cannot let out. Whenever this happens, I talk to my dog. I tell him why i am going away and that i will be back home soon. Dogs are such lovable beings. They always show love and intelligence, too. The dog that we have with us now, she shows signs of understanding about what i am telling her to do. I love my dog, we call her cherry and she loves her nickname as it is. I have come to believe that dogs tilt their heads when something is about them and they want to be enlightened about what it is that's happening or, as to what it is that is about.

Hi chiwasaki! That's really cute! I don't know if our dog Max tilt his head when I talk to him, I just don't notice. But I see him move his head when I'm faking that I dropped food on the floor for him to eat.

no idea, but I do remember that in the movie "Bolt" the dog had to be taught by the cat to do that!

Oh I used to love it when my dog did that! It's almost as if he was understanding what I was saying. I so miss having a dog. We can't where I live, unfortunately.

My little dogs tilt their heads when I talk to them in my "sweet" voice..lol. They are very attentive and look as though they are trying to understand what I am saying to them. It's so cute.

Off of the top of my head, the only time that I can think of when Jasmine and Chloe tilt their heads at me is when I am talking directly to one of the two of them. I always thought that the reason that they tilt their heads when I am talking to them is because of the fact that they are listening to me. I know that dogs aren't able to understand everything that we say, but I do think that there are some words that they are able to understand and that is what they are listening for.

every animal has its own reaction to what we say ,Dogs do look cute,even cats do look cute,every animal has its own discussion to what we do and how we show our love towards them,its nice to share with the animals what we say or talk ,they are or can be our best friends always ,

I'm also amused when they tilt their heads. As if they are comprehending what I'm actually saying. Those are my precious moments.

You mean like this? http://youtu.be/sVMhuiHm50I Occasionally my dogs tilt their head too, but I don't think any dog does it better than these pugs...

I always love it when my dogs tilt their heads. I think that they are just listening to me or they hear me and they're saying "I know she's saying something, and I hear my name, but I don't know what she is saying." I think though that it is so cute and amusing to me when I see them do this. But the article that you read is probably right they are probably curious at what you are saying and wish they understood your words.

My dog too tilts his head when he hears some sharp sounds that he has never heard before,like the sound of ambulance etc. I think he is concentrating on to that sound by tilting his head.

I haven't had a dog for a long time now but we did have one when I was a kid. It was a dear and we loved it. It was really ferocious but would never do a thing to the family Anyway I also remember it tilting it's head. It looked so adorable! He used to tilt his head when we asked for his hand. He was trained to give his hand, sometimes both hands. And I remember it used to tilt its head whenever I asked for his hands and then give it. Aww I miss him.

Well, my Jack Russell tilts his head when sitting/resting outside of the house, and sees me come of the house to see him. Maybe sometimes it's a sign of curiosity.

haha i too believe that it's like a "huh?" or "What?" to them when they tilt their heads. You can see it on movie with dogs and movie animations with dogs again . I am really fond of dogs too, i also like it when they wag their tails when i call them :))
