[@shadeyshade4880]

I love how initially all the other dogs have no expression in their eyes, and after the little dog gets the nervous harness their eyes look like hers. It seems like because she was so scared, the little dog didn't really see the others as potential friends and just saw them as a source of anxiety. After they knew to treat her more calmly, she was able to open up a bit. Really cute!

When this happens to me I have no eye contact O:

[@slyllamademon2652]

When you go to dog shows that’s how it starts, but as you see the same dogs over and over and make friends, you start to see the expression in their eyes. I have this French bulldog named splash, she’s black brindle and has a nice jaw and longer nose so she can breathe easy, and I never see her mouth open when she’s excited, I see her eyes focus on me and it’s cute, they’re like the mirror puppy eyes you see in cartoons and that’s why she’s the cutest dog I have at my house.

[@MrRobotman]

I love this. I while ago I learned it can be helpful to tell other people you're nervous. Otherwise, you're playing a role of a confident person and being someone you're not. It releases the pressure.

[@bannedaccount3752]

The yellow vests are provided by the use of reason of anyone with enough intellectual resources to notice the signals of who has social anxiety and who doesn't. The problem is that, nowadays, there are more apathetic people with no intellectual resources than empathic ones.

Aw the end is so cute, i understand that and i’ve seen dogs who are nervous. Some bark and snap or even try to bite, some will run, some will just stay still. All dogs are amazing, and no one should say “thats a terrible dog, ew.” Dogs have their own emotions too, some even have separation anxiety and people turn around and sya their dogs are bad from it. Poor dogs.

[@Whatlander]

This is my parents' dog exactly. He loves his doggie daycare; he's the size and shape of a deerhound, but also a very soft and timid boi. He's the only large dog that they allow into the small dogs room because he's so gentle (and probably feels safer with the little guys.) He's basically a pile of hemp ropes with anxiety.

When the nervous dog rolls the ball back and then both dogs start smiling and wagging their tails I was overwhelmed with cuteness ❤😭
