I believe they were communicating to each other telepathically. Ghost understood when Jon looked at him. Direwolves aren’t pets and that look between them was heartfelt and understood just between them.

All the Stark Children have very close bonds with their direwolves and all of them can warg,but the showrunners didnt think it was important to show that.

Here’s what I saw sometime ago about the wolves. They’re not actually in the scenes, they are superimposed. They used real wolves so it wasn’t feasible for them to interact with the actors. I think it’s mostly a technical issue. A direwolf is substantially larger than a real wolf, so every shot with Ghost is expensive CGI and it’s tricky to make any interaction look real and natural. Jon is a great owner, he’s letting Ghost go somewhere where he’ll be happy and much safer than in the south.

Previous to that scene, Jon and Ghost spent some quality one-on-one time together. Jon stroked his fur and rubbed his belly and Ghost puppy rolled on top of him licking his face.
They communicated telepathically in a long eye gazing moment where Ghost understood where Jon was going and why Ghost couldn’t come. By the time we see them on the screen, they’ve both already come to terms with it and there’s nothing more left to say or do but walk away. they didn’t consider any animals as pets they were used as hunting. People back then had a different sense of things. Like today we see a any dog as a pet. Back then if they couldn’t hunt they were useless and probably killed or starved. No one cared The direwolves gradually became such minor characters. Maybe at the cost of the dragons being so involved or other visual goods, but still. Even Shaggydog was offed off-screen. Nymeria came back for a 2 minute cameo. Grey Wind at least killed a few hounds and ripped a guys arm off before he died in the books, but isn’t even given that in the show.
At least when you watch the shows back they have some good on screen time seasons 1-3 (and Ghost helping at the Battle on the Wall)
Love this show – Get this badass tee
