Dogs wag their tails because it is telling their owner that they are happy, interested or excited about something.
It could be either the animal is just swishing away pesky flies, or it is agitated and stressed.
To shoo off the flies.
Because they are happy.
to show it's happy
It can, but this is more likely when the dog is sitting or lying down. When a dog is standing and wagging its tail, it's the momentum of the tail wagging that spreads to the rest of the dog's body and causes the rest of the dog to wag too.
There are no statistics as to the number of times a dog wags it's tail in a lifetime. Different breeds wag their tail either a little or a lot. It also depends on the longevity of the dog.
it matters on the dog. curly tail dogs curl their tail up when their happy, and wag it the same time when their super happy. dogs with strait tails just wag it. when they're bored/ sad all dog's tail go down. And when all dogs a scared the tail is between their legs or it's strait as if their sad, but their tail would be stiff.

If the dog is wagging it's tail than it's probably happy. But dogs don't always wag their tails because they are happy. I think its just a sign of communication. Sometimes aggressive dogs will wag their tails. I don't know whether is subconscious or not - but I certainly believe it to be a way of communicating.
It refers to making a situation seem something it is not by creating the situation in such a way that the spectators react in a predetermined manner. This phrase was popularised a few years ago by the Robert De Niro film by the same name - "Wag the dog", in which Whitehouse media men created a false press release showing some war-like scenario unfolding in order to take the pressure off of the president, and create a favourable reaction in the populous for the president to take "appropriate" response. The response obviously wasn't appropriate, as the scenarion was false from the beginning. The question which gives rise to the phrase "wag the dog", is: Does the dog wag the tail, or does the tail wag the dog? You see the tail moving, you assume the dog is wagging it, and enjoying it, but maybe the tail is wagging the dog, and the dog is enjoying the attention!
