I had a mild panic attack during a LSD trip and my dog curled on my side and basically « sucked » my anxiety and made me feel relaxed.
On another day, my wife remembered a sad event in her life and began to cry silently. Our dog woke up and came to sit at her side calmly.
We don’t deserve dogs.
- dvtv75 8y agoSome time back, my partner had a really sad event in her life, and she sat on the couch crying. We have two dogs, a happy yet dumb-as-a-rock greyhound, and a collie-staffie cross. The collie noticed, jumped up on the couch, and cuddled into her to (try and) make her happy again. When we lost her pack mate to cancer, a few years ago, she sat on the couch for ten days, didn't eat, just lay with her head between her paws. We were all heartbroken, myself most of all, but she was too sad to help anyone this particular time. After she recovered, she helped me a lot. We don't deserve dogs, but dogs are awesome and we could learn a lot from them. “Be the person your dog thinks you are!” ― J.W. Stephens
