TIL dogs feel most vulnerable when pooping so they look to their owners for protection, which often results in awkward staring.

飼っている愛犬がうんちさんをする際、こちらに視線を感じたことはありませんか？
iheartdogsの記事によると、実はこの行動、
『恥ずかしいからこっち見ないでね（汗）』
の恥じらいの合図ではなく、
『おい飼い主、見張り頼んだぞ』
の視線だぞうです。
自然界の中で、犬は用を足す時間が最も隙があって、群れ仲間、家族であるあなたを見て危険が無いかを確認している見たいです。
用を足してる時に危機を察知する為に、本能的に仲間を確認するのだそう。

なのでもし今後視線を感じだ時は、気まずさからそっぽを向くのではなく、
愛犬の為に周囲を確認し、危険が無ければグーサインで安心させてやってください。

家のスパーキーが俺を見てくるときいつも『お・・おい、ちょっとあっち向いててもらえないｽか兄貴』ってると思ってたわ。
だからいつも違う方向むいてやってたんだけど。これを知るとなんだか悪い事しちゃったな

犬ぞりって走りながらポロって用を足すんだよ、それか可愛らしく前足ダンシング糞だね。
時々止まろうとする奴もいるけど、時速ついてると無理なんだ。
