It's commonly believed that dogs wag their tails to convey that they are happy and friendly, but this isn't exactly true. Dogs do use their tails to communicate, though a wagging tail doesnt always mean, 'Come pet me!'

Dogs have a kind of language that's based on the position and motion of their tails. The position of a dog's tail reveals its emotional state.
