A smiling dog is one thing that helps. The second and third things are alcohol and cigars. The fourth would be quitting this shitty job I'm at (people "calling off" every day and I have to take calls, which I'm pissed that I feel like I've been demoted) and getting a job that pays me 2x-3x more than what I make.
So he wasn't hot at all, not panting, relaxing, but he saw someone and perked up and immediately had to start 'panting'? You know that's a lot weirder than a breeding selected social cue? It's a dog, not a wild hyena. And it's not panting, it just stuck its tongue out, which dogs do.
Dogs have learned to smile as a social cue for interacting with humans. It's not made up nonsense, they're intelligent creatures capable of communication.
dude, my corgi smiles to me full stop stop that anthropocentrism dumbassery that we are soooo different from animals they have feelings, are smart and are capable of empathy
"this dog literally smiled at me." No. It literally did not. That's just the way a dog's musculature works. They're not necessarily happy when they wag their tails either; it's what they do when they're feeling anxious. Please stop anthropomorphizing your pets. (here come the downvotes)
The dog is panting, which is how they cool off. That is the natural position of their facial musculature when they pant. Speak seriously to a veterinarian. If the vet is not being playful, but rather speaking medically, they will explain to you that you are anthropomorphizing, your pet.

Fun fact! Dogs have the same brain processes light up when they see a human as humans do when they see a dog!

It poked its tongue at someone for staring rudely and its face just looks like that when its mouth is open.

I've seen people online say that dogs "don't smile", so for those people, What is this?

This would be more validating than a human smiling at me, were it to happen to me.

panting is not smiling, ok? you are allowed to just say "cute dog" or "nice puppy" you don't need to create fake scenarios of what happened
