whoodoooo: why does my dog blink differently when I am being loving or petting him?
my dog blinks kinda like a cat when Im petting him or talking in a loving way to him. Anybody know whats going on here? Is this a type of body language or just a natural response to pleasure – or both?

It is a calming technique that dogs use. It says he is happy.

Try this: blink your eyes, turn your head slightly and yawn. Your dog will respond back the same way. It is a nice way to tell your dog that dog that everything is alright.
