Dog Excitement Expression

Dog excitement expression mainly includes:

Circling around the owner
Wagging tail
Licking the owner's face
Excitedly rushing towards the owner
Scratching the owner with its head

However, overall, excessive excitement is not good for dogs. Because excitement consumes a lot of dog's energy and may lead to behaviors such as damaging the house, owners should find ways to calm down their dogs. For example, taking the dog for a walk often can help expend its energy.

Circling around the owner

Dogs are naturally active, especially when they are excited. They may run and jump everywhere, even constantly circle around their owners to express their excitement.

Wagging tail

The tail is the most direct reflection of a dog's emotions. When a dog feels excited and happy, it will quickly wag its tail from left to right. This usually happens when welcoming the owner or greeting others, representing friendliness.

Licking the owner's face

If the owner is nearby, the dog will excitedly lick the owner's face when it is in a extremely happy and excited state. This is a way for dogs to express their love for their owners. Of course, the owner can also stroke the dog's head as a response.

Excitedly rushing towards the owner

Dogs are very affectionate animals. When the owner comes home after a long day's work, the dog will excitedly rush towards them, just like long-lost friends reuniting. However, owners should also train their dogs not to rush towards people randomly. If this habit is formed, the dog will rush towards strangers when they see them outside, which is very dangerous for both pedestrians and dogs.

Scratching the owner with its head

When a dog is extremely excited, it will also use its head to scratch the owner and try to rub against the owner's body, hoping that the owner can play with it. This is also a way for dogs to express their closeness and trust towards their owners.
