Many people don't really understand why being a snob can be expressed as "Dog eyes looking down upon people". They might have thought that the dog has some special ability.
The saying actually has two levels of meaning. One being that the perspective which the dogs view the world is lower than humans anyway. Of course, like normal people, when it sees Yao Ming, he will also need to raise its head. It's not that it can't see the whole thing. The second is the idea that dogs do judge a book base by its cover, judging men by its clothing.
However, in reality it is really not the case. This saying is talking about the fact that when a dog judges a man, it is looking at its clothing. The reasoning here is a little strange. How can a dog tell the difference from good clothing to bad ones? I have six years of experience with dogs, I have seen a lot. For example, there are two people in the front coming towards the dog. The dog surly will bark at the one that is not as well dress. At first it might have been natural instinct, but this is not really the case, this is also because of long term training.
I also have another experience, which really reinforces the saying. Ajiao from my novel "Ajiao's N timed marriages" comes to my house. Normally, whenever a stranger comes over, my dog would bark at it. But this time, not only it didn't bark, it shows friendly attitude towards my friend by wagging its tail. Strange? It is really not strange, dog really do have the simple ability to distinguish beauty. Maybe that's something its ancestor left it, maybe it's something else.
Another example is even more typical. In our community there is a janitor, during his times off he would always play with my dog in casual clothing. But at his work, when he is wearing his uniform, sometimes the dog wouldn't recognize him. Only when dog is able to recognize the sense of a person, will it be able to recognize the person. This is also a rule.
From semblance and smell, the dog will be able to tell one thing from another. This is the key to the secret of "Dog eyes looking down upon people".

Solving the Mystery of “Snobbish Eyes of Dogs”
A lot of people do not understand the saying, “snobbish eyes of dogs”, and always assume that dogs have some unique talents.
“Snobbish eyes of dogs” has double meanings. On the one hand, it means that dogs move around our feet, compared with mankind their views of the world are much lower, unable to see the whole perspective, just like ordinary men have to lift up their heads to look at YaoMing. On the other hand, it means dogs are snobbish; they react according to the way you dress.
As a matter of fact, this is not the case. When dogs look at people, they actually look at their clothing, the reason why is very strange. How can dogs differentiate clothing from good and bad? I had come across many incidents in my six-year experience in canine raising. For example, two people came over, one very well dressed, while the other sloppy, the dog would definitely bark at the latter. Initially I thought this is their basic instinct, but not so, it is a habit developed through constant trainings.
Another personal experience of mine can really substantiate this saying. The real protagonist in my book “The N Times Loves and Marriages of Ajiao” came to my house, my dog normally would bark furiously at strangers, but instead it wagged its tail to express friendliness towards Ajiao. Strange ? Not at all, dogs do have some simple aesthetic faculties; maybe this is inherited instinct, maybe not.
Yet another even more typical example is the one I had encountered, there was this janitor in our community, whenever he was off duty, he would put on his casual clothes and play with my dog. However, my dog would not recognize him occasionally when he was on duty in work clothes. Only when dogs are familiar with the sense of a person, will it be able to recognize him. This is also a rule.
Dogs differentiate matters by distinguishing semblance and smell. This is the key to the secrets of “snobbish eyes of dogs”!

好多人不太了解为什么叫“狗眼看人低”,总以为狗有什么特殊的本事。
“狗眼看人低”,有两层含义，一是说，狗本来就是在人的脚边活动，它眼中的大千世界一直是比人类看的低的多。当然它看我们就象普通人看姚明，总要仰头看。它并看不全的。二是说，狗势力眼，看人凭人的着装。
其实不是的，这句话就是说狗看人的时候，是看人的服饰，具体原因很奇怪，为什么狗能看出来人穿衣服好坏呢，我有六年养狗的经验，我见的太多了。比方说，前方有两个人，一起走过来，一个人的衣服不好，而另一个人的衣服很好，狗肯定对着穿着不好的人叫唤，开始感觉是本能，其实不是的，也是狗通过长时间的训练养成的习惯。
我又亲身过一个经历，更说明狗眼看人的实例。在我小说《阿乔的N次婚恋》中的原型阿乔来我家，按我家狗狗平时的表现，家里来陌生人它是必定叫的，而且是很猛烈的叫的，但这次它不但没叫，而且还对着我朋友摇尾巴表示友好，奇怪吗，并不奇怪，狗确实有些简单的审美能力，或许这是老祖宗给它留下的本能，或许是什么。
另一个例子简直更典型，我曾经见过的，本来小区有个打扫卫生的人，他平时休息的时候总是穿着便服逗我家的小狗，可在上班的时候，他穿的很破，狗偶尔就不认识了。除非是狗已经熟悉了对方的气味，它才不会认错人，这也是规律。
狗通过看外表和闻气味来辨别事物,这就是“狗眼看人低”之迷的关键秘密所在。
