Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Dogs' eyes well up with tears of joy when reunited with their owners
Are our pet dogs as expressive as human beings? We humans well up with tears when we are emotionally moved. While dogs show their emotions by wagging, licking, or jumping to show their happiness, they aren’t seen crying or in tears. Recently, research by Japanese scientists found that dogs’ eyes seem to well up with tears when they are reunited with their owners after a while. They found that the amount of tears increased only after reunions with their owners but not with other people who are familiar with the dogs. Even though the amount of tears increased might not be substantial enough to be recognized by us, dogs seem to have another way to express their emotion.
Enjoy reading the article and learning about how close pet dogs are to their owners.
