Dogs are rich and articulate creatures that have a lot of emotions and feelings.
Love is one of those. We humans want to know that we are loved and we are used to hearing the famous pair of words I love you pronounced which, however, despite their great abilities, do not come out from the lips of dogs.
A nice mess. Dogs love us, we want to know that they love us, they cannot tell us in the way that is most immediately understandable to us, as is done
easily 🙂 It is just a matter of understanding how they express their love. Here are 7 ways dogs express their love: They Lick Dogs lick for several reasons , one of which is to say I love you. From you yes, from others no
For me this is one of the most moving aspects of a dog’s relationship with the humans he loves. From the people they love, dogs accept things that others do not accept. For every dog, since every dog ​​is unique, that something is different. For my Eduard, for example, it was looking at his ears – no one could, only me. Oban, on the other hand, who has a huge proxemic bubble, who suffers from being approached and touched by those he loves, lets himself be hugged, cuddled, squeezed, even picked up. The helicopter
tail Dogs wag their tails, everyone knows that. Less well known and that there are many ways of wagging the tail that have different meanings. A tail wagging generally reserved for loved ones and the ‘helicopter’ one, in which the dog’s tail rotates in a circle. They are committed to you
An aspect not normally considered of dogs and that have their own character and personality so whoever takes a dog starts a relationship with an individual who is himself and has his own characteristics, not with a soft toy or a malleable clay. according to your wishes. In short (surprise!), The dog entering one’s life can be different from what one imagined or even wished. Accept and love it for those who are a fundamental, sometimes tiring, step in the relationship. A very nice look and that the effort is not one way. A way in which dogs manifest their love is by making a commitment to those they love, by making an effort to be and behave the way they want. They follow you everywhere
For some dogs, even the bathroom is not sacred. Following the owners wherever they go, even when they move a few meters around the house, is a manifestation of love and attachment. They smile at you while they look at you
It seems that Audreay Hepburn said that the beauty of a woman must be perceived from her eyes, because that is the door of her heart, the place where love resides. The same can be said of dogs who say I love you to their humans with their eyes. They stand next to you
There are the exuberant ones who always have to tell you they love you by jumping on you, those who can’t think there is even an inch of distance between you and them, those who lie belly up in front of you, those who lean on legs, those who do not like physical contact but when they have to choose a place to stay, they choose where you are, soberly respectful of everyone’s spaces but close and how much love that choice reveals, more than a thousand words. My Oban is one like that. It may never be that someone touches him, but when I work he comes to me, he snuggles up next to the desk and with that he says to me, I love you, human.
