Video: Owner Says Border Collie Speaks With Facial Expressions Rather Than Words

Meet Auzzy, the most expressive dog on the internet. He expertly uses his eyes and face to convey what he is thinking and feeling. And trust us, you’ll be surprised at his skill. This Instagram video shows how much sass a Border Collie can pack into a single look. Every subtle tilt of the head, squint of the eyes, or lip smack is like a full sentence in Auzzy’s secret language. And that’s exactly what happens in this adorable clip, where one look from Auzzy tells more than words ever could.

Owner rates Border Collie’s varied feelings in video

This video has been garnering smiles and laughter on social media lately as Auzzy’s human walks viewers through his “ratings” of feelings. All of this is based purely on his facial expressions. We start with the “suspicious” look — eyes squinted to slits, earning a 2/10. Then comes “very anxious,” with lips smacking furiously, a clear sign of inner turmoil, rated 0/10. But Auzzy’s post-walk grin? Absolutely elated. That wide, pure smile scores an 11/10.

The drama continues with a betrayed expression, complete with the text “I left without him,” again 0/10 in the human’s funny rating system. Next, we see him intensely watching his human possibly asleep, a perfect 10/10. Then boredom sets in — chin on the couch, eyes half-lidded, just 1/10. Finally, we see a needy moment, leaning against his human’s leg, a soft 5/10.

With over 18,000 likes, it’s clear people were charmed by Auzzy’s expressions in the comments. One person wrote, “This baby could be an actor. so expressive.” Another user said, “You can’t convince me this is not a person.” Another person joked about the ratings. They wrote, “WHY SO LOW EACH ONE IS A 14/10.” Auzzy proves that you don’t need words to convey a full spectrum of emotion — sometimes, all it takes is a look.
