Sir,

I could find it "cheer up" in dictionary but in this context how a dog can "cheer up" people when they are frowning.


I want to know the exact meaning of both the lines.


Thanks.

You ask how a dog can cheer up people. Here are some answers.

A dog can cheer up people by wagging its tail, by barking a greeting, by jumping excitedly, by doing tricks, by allowing you to pet it.

If you are not from a culture which regularly keeps dogs as pets, then it may be difficult for you to relate to these cultural elements. That is certainly understandable.
