But over time, the reason we could interact with each other so well was because we're so social and dogs would have picked up on our social cues with their eyes and stuff as well. If you think of a pug, it's basically bred to look like a human face. It's flat and they have the big eyes. So over time, it became advantageous for dogs to understand our eye movements and like it was bred for.
