Ask an expert on dog behavior why dogs smile, and you may get a somewhat complicated answer involving submissive behavior, automatic responses, etc. They often ruefully conclude, "But dogs don't really smile, at least, not for the same reasons we do."

Ask the average dog owner the same question, and he'll respond indignantly: "Of course he smiles! Just look at that face; he's smiling right now - you can't say that's not a smile!"

Yeah that's true actually. Great answer!

You really should not as you are showing your teeth and to a dog, it means you are threatening it by baring your teeth. Keep your mouth closed. If you know the dog, it doesn't matter but if it is a strange dog, then do not smile at it.

Sometimes it looks like it when their mouth is open and their tongue is hanging out. They look very happy.

Is smile dog real?

I do not believe it is real but many people do indeed believe it. Many people have been complaining as the supposedly real smile dog image does not give the effects people claim it is supposed to. All the image does is give you a little chill for one second then you move on. People have been searching for the real image for a lot of years but have had no success. Why would you want to find a image that can give you nightmares? It's idiotic. In short it's just a creepy pasta chain letter. The real smile dog image is forever lost in the internet. If there is a real one it will be almost impossible to find it. However, if you do get an email with the image in it, it's really simple not to pass it on and break the chain forever.
