Actually a dog wags their tail in different ways. If a dog keeps their tail high and wags it, they are showing a sign of dominance. The bigger dog usually does this because they think they are in control! If a dog only wags the tip of it's tail it means that it's unsure and/or nervous. The most popular type of tail wagging is when a dog wags his tail straight out, this means they are excited and happy about something.
It's a sign of happiness.
Dogs also wag their tails to show a sign of warning. They appear to be friendly but they are truly terrified. Take it from me I was bit by one of those friendly but terrified dogs.
As a way to communicate. Like how some people use hand gestures when they talk, dogs wag their tails to express themselves!
