Every dog owner is familiar with the feeling of being watched. Dogs will spend a lot of time staring at their owners, even if the owners find the constant attention a bit disturbing.
Sometimes they look for signs that you might want to take them for a walk or feed them a meal. If you train your dog to respond to hand or vocal signals, they may wait for the signal to tell them what to do next. Other times, they just observe you to learn more about you.
Sometimes this gaze is combined with a playful bow or a suggestive glance. When your dog stares at you and begs, if you give him what he wants, you will reinforce the behavior. They will continue to use staring as a way to get what they want. If you have a problem, you can talk to your veterinarian or dog trainer for advice on curbing this form of begging.
If you pay attention to what happens when your dog stares at you, you can understand why they are staring at you. Paying attention to their body language will give you more clues as to why they are following you with their eyes. Take note of what you're doing at the moment and figure out what grabs their attention. Most of the time, if your dog stares at you, it's because they think you're important and they just want to be involved in everything you do.
