You might not believe it but your Frenchie has a unique personality. This alone means that it can be hard to know how your dog is feeling. They may not be wagging their tails, but it doesn’t mean that they’re not happy. To know if your dog is happy and enjoying the life you need to look beyond their behavior. Does your French bulldog smile when he is happy or shows other behaviors? In this blog, we’ll look at some different signs that your dog is happy and whether French bulldogs smile when happy or not.
Do French Bulldogs Smile?
French bulldogs are known for their bold and energetic character, so despite the lack of facial expressions and because of their breed, you will often see them smiling giddily or showing signs of curiosity. Because of this, French Bulldogs tend to show their emotions more than others.
But don’t let this frustrate you because sometimes you may spot a full-face smile! To know if it’s a French bulldog smiling, look for them to open their mouth unusually wide, pout their lips in an upward curve, and squint their eyes. It’s really cute.
What Are the Signs That Show Your French bulldog Is Happy?
As we know, French Bulldogs are full of charm and pleasant moods. They aren’t the kinds of dogs that reputably show their pleasure with a lovable smile for the whole world to see. But even if they don’t always have these big smiles on their adorable faces, there are other ways to tell when they’re happy.
They Wag Their Bottom
French bulldogs are not able to wag their tails because of the type of dog they are, but if you look closely you may notice that your furry friend will wiggle his little round bottom when he sees you, which is a sure sign that he’s happy.
They Have a Relaxed Face
There are several things you can tell right off the bat when it comes to determining whether your French bulldog is happy or unhappy. The biggest tip-off would be whether or not your pup’s mouth is relaxed. Frenchies who are in a good mood will keep their mouths as relaxed as possible while they smile at whatever they’re feeling.
However, French bulldogs who aren’t exactly thrilled with one particular person or situation that’s going on will have a harder time showing their teeth because of how angry and defensive they are feeling. If your dog happens to show his or her teeth yet is still wagging its tail, then you know absolutely nothing bad has happened and the pup is displaying signs of pleasure, not spite.
See You with Puppy Dog Eyes
What exactly are puppy dog eyes? Some may call it the look of sympathy but, to a French Bulldog, those sweet eyes show happiness. When your Frenchie is happy, their eyelids tend to relax and be soft. But when your Frenchie is in an aggressive mood his eyes are going to be narrow and hard. This might sound silly but that’s ultimately how you can tell how your dog is feeling at any given moment.
A Happy Frenchie Love To Eat
A happy French bulldog loves to eat. If your dog is always ready to dig in, is constantly racing around, and doesn’t seem interested in lying quietly, it’s probably because your Frenchie loves his food. A truly happy dog is always ready to eat.
A Happy Frenchie Has Relaxed Ears
French Bulldogs have upright ears that are often floppy. But unhappy Frenchies will have ears that remain rigid in a somewhat unmoved position. They might even appear lowered to indicate their general unhappiness.
If your Frenchie’s ears seem relaxed, it could be a clue that they are feeling content and happy with their surroundings – so if you notice your Frenchie’s ears seem a bit raised and animated, they may be interested in something they currently find exciting or interesting.
