Recent research into doggy tail wagging has shown that most dogs wag their tail to the right when they see someone they know. When they feel threatened they tend to wag to the left - before they make a dash for it or go on the attack! This is to do with the way the right and left halves of the brain control emotions. It's already known that most dogs prefer to use one paw over the other - most male dogs are left-pawed while the girls are right-pawed. 'Shake hands Fido' takes on a whole new significance!
