They cannot fake their feelings. Cats or dogs do not have the brain capacity to think like that.Can dogs fake their feelings? Like waving their tails when they're happy, etc.? Is it something they control?
Telling Tails: Since dogs rarely wag their tails when they are alone, they must be using this gesture to communicate to others. For example, when a dog鈥檚 tail wags as it is given food, it is expressing pleasure to its owner. When dogs eat and play alone, they rarely wag their tails because there is no one to see them.





When a dog wags its tail, surrounding muscles press on scent glands, releasing pheromones that signal the pooch鈥檚 age, sex, and social status. Submissive dogs may not wag their tails when frightened because they do not want to draw attention to themselves.





A high, quickly wagging tail is often a sign of playfulness and intense joy, but can also signal an aggressive dog. A horizontal, steadily moving tail suggests that your dog is closely studying something. If a dog tucks its tail between its legs, it is afraid, and attempting to communicate that it is submissive and does not pose a threat.






I believe dogs to be a very sincere type of creature... I've never pondered a dog being deceptive.





Alot of people I know avoid people, and just hang around their dogs for that exact reason... because they're honest, and are not a judgemental sort of creature.





Man, if we can't even rely on dogs to be honest... there really is no hope...
I don't think so. Animals don't put up fake personas the way humans do. They don't understand the concept of being polite or dishonest.
no they cant control it if their happy they wag their tail if theyre hurt theyre ears r back ect:
I think dogs are too pure of heart to fake anything. They feel what they do and express it freely. I LOVE dogs.
I don't think so. I think they always show what they are feeling. :)
