Certainly, dogs are not human. But they do clearly display emotions. Happiness, sadness, fear, anger, jealously, & selfishness are all evident in dogs.
Numerous stories & videos posted here at FR bear this out. The sadness of the dog mourning at the casket of his master, & the euphoria of a dog reuniting with his master are just 2 recent, unmistakable displays of dog emotion.

You’re assigning them human emotions. They are dogs and therefore have dog emotions. Run on instinct and not thought.
I love my dog, but she is a dog.
