Darwin’s Dogs
In his book The Expression of Emotions in Man and Animals, Darwin used the domestic dog extensively to illustrate his ideas about the interpretation of animals’ postures and expressions. One of his central precepts was the “principle of antithesis”—the idea that opposing emotions induce exactly opposite postures, which thereby convey precise information about the animal’s state of mind and intentions. He contrasted the “attacking” dog that stands tall, leans forward with tail and hackles raised, growls, and bares its teeth with the “friendly, submissive” dog that crouches low to the ground, tail held down. Although Darwin’s “principle of antithesis” is rarely referred to today, his interpretation of the dogs’ emotional states is still considered sound.
