What does it mean when a dog starts laughing?
editMine goes "heheheheh" all the time, especially when playful. Is this him copying human behavior? Is it some hereto-unknown thing that dogs do? Is it unique to him?
It's rather creepy but also hilarious.
Adding "play sneeze" to the auditory communication types
editI would like to add "play sneeze" to the auditory communication types. It's both auditory and visual, but i guess it fits better in the auditory section.
Dogs will usually make a "play sneeze," an expulsion of air that resembles a sneeze, but is not actually a sneeze, to indicate that they are not being aggressive, like when they initiate play, or play is initiated with them, or even if they notice that their play partner has been hurt.
A number of experts confirm this, including, Turid Rugaas (who is already cited multiple times in the article) lists play sneezing as a calming signal in On Talking Terms with Dogs: Calming Signals.[1] The existing article already lists several of the calming signals mentioned in the book, but omits this notable one.
Also confirming it is Debra Eldredge, DVM (DVM is PhD equivalent for veterinary science), in an interview for the website dogster.com [2]
Also confirming it is veterinarian Dr. Janice Huntingford in a blog article about dog sneezing[3],
Also confirming it is veterinary doctor Ernie Ward, in a self-published article about dog sneezing [4]
