Not all wags are equal. A frantic helicopter wag means “I’m excited!” But a slow, swooping wag that wiggles their whole butt? That’s pure devotion.
Watch the direction, too. Research shows dogs wag their tails more to the right when they see someone they love. Left-side wags mean stress or anxiety.
If your dog’s tail does a happy, right-sided swish when you walk in the room, congratulations. You’re their favorite person.
