Absolutely
My pups have always responded to my emotions just like yours does.
When I was really poorly, you couldn't get my last pup away from my side. I'm sure she was worried about me, bless her.
They give sooo much, and I believe it's because they do sense our feelings.

Great question! You are right about dogs they are very loving. I have two gray parrots and they are at least as smart as dogs if not more so. Google African grays and they will amaze you at what their comprehension of language etc. is. I had a girl watching my birds when I was out of town, she was crying about her boyfriend while she was sweeping the floor in the house. My one bird told her "it's all right". Also when I leave the house, I grab my coat and keys and the bird always says either see ya later or Bye Bye. I could go on and on about the language but they also know feelings and moods. They read people very well.

Most animals are not telepathic but Empathic, this is the ability to read anothers emotional state wether they are human or animal. Cats are the most perceptive of species, with Dogs following close behind. I also have pet rats and snakes who are also able to pick up on my moods to a certain extent.

Yeah I think they can respond because when Im sad my dog always comes to comfort me. I think it is especially when they know you they get to know routines and how you react to certain things. Whether they can hear it however. I seriously doubt it. Perhaps it is part of their senses but I just think that they no. Somehow. Good Question. Wish I had more of a positve answer for you.

I'm not sure how they do it but they certainly seem to pick up on our feelings and emotions. About 10 years ago I had a cocker Spaniel who always came with me to visit my Grandma's house. He really loved going there and couldn't wait to get out of the car when we arrived, he would zoom around the side of the house and be scratching at the back door to get in.
The day after my Grandma died I took him with me for company as there were things I needed to do in the house. It was a struggle to get him out of the car and when we got to the back door he would not come into the house. One of the jobs to do was strip the bedding of the bed. I put them in a heap near the back door (which was open) and when I came back to them 10 minutes later the dog was curled up asleep on them.
Also from the day i found out I was pregnant he did not jump up on my lap again until 2 Weeks after i gave birth and then he started again.
WEIRD BUT TRUE.

totally animals sense your mood. it's not like syco mind reading or anything but especially pets have a strong conection with thier owners, it's like your best mate would know if you were sad or happy just by the way you look, nothing to do with talking.
although in a way you can comuicate with animals through your body language.

She can't hear your thoughts, but she can sense the emotions and also pick up little clues through your body language! Be careful around her when your angry though! She may think it's her you are angry with!
My cats and dog are always there for me when I'm upset too!

i am sure that our pets specially dogs can judge our thoughts and emotions, i recently lost my job, and didnt say anything to a soul at home, but my dog knew that there was a problem and she wouldnt leave my side, she even refused to eat her dinner, because it would have meant leaving me, and when i finally spoke to my family about loosing my job, she sat with her paws in my lap, until all the shouting had finished. She is brilliant .

I know what you mean, I think dogs or other pets can totally sense our feelings. Like when we're sick or sad, they can tell by our breathing, our body language, our voice and our expressions. Maybe it's a commbination of hearing, seeing and another type of sense, like a sixth sense.

Dogs can pick up on electrical impulses in the brain and predict when their owner is about to have an epileptic fit and they can smell cancer. I think sensing your mood would be easy, mine certainly has me pegged. My best and most loyal friend.
