I have a dog, too and have to admit I sometimes use her as an &quot;emotions detector&quot; - much like a guide dog, because I&#x27;m actually not that good at recognizing people&#x27;s emotions&#x2F;moods. The angles at which she puts her ears and head are pretty reliable and easy to read indicators. :)
When she sees someone&#x27;s upset or sad she&#x27;ll walk over to them and cheer them up. Even random people in the street or on the subway. I mostly fail to even notice...
