When dogs communicate with each other they use there ears, eyes, mouth, eyebrows, head, and there tail to send signals. But there are three main ways dogs communicate and that is sound, scent and body/facial expressions, and movement. When a dog barks or growls at another dog it is because that dog is usually thinks its the alpha male and is reminding the other dog where his place is by scaring it. The tail of a dog is the most common way of communicating. When two dogs sniff each others rear end it is a communicating ritual for them. Dog can also communiacate from a distance only by waving their tale.__ __But not only can dogs communicate with dogs they communicate with humans too.
