7 Cute Signs That Prove Your Dg Has a Heart of Gold – Yahoo
Dogs have the innate ability to channel Cindy Lou Who in How the Grinch Who Stole Christmas and make our hearts grow three sizes simply by being themselves. There's something about sweet dogs that can make a person smile and feel good when they are around their furry best friend.
"Dogs are one of the world's most cherished companions," Shannon Kenny, CPDT-KA, a professional dog trainer with Woofz, a puppy and dog training app. "They are loyal, playful, silly, smart and so loving. "Sharing a home with one of these dogs is absolute joy because their enthusiasm is contagious, and they can make anyone feel special."
So, what makes a dog kind and caring? Unlike a person who may be Grinch-like, dogs don't need a Cindy Lou Who-style character to act big-hearted. They just need their owner. "Dogs that feel safe and secure enough in their environment are likely to be 'big-hearted,'" explains Kenny. "A confident, comfortable dog that has their needs met will have the space to show affection, happiness and devotion," Kenny explains.
And show you, these pups will. However, recognizing how a dog shows love and "talks" to you can be a little hard. That's why Kenny is sharing seven cute behaviors that prove your dog has a big heart. These are examples of how dogs communicate, dog personality traits and what their body language means, which can help you see the adorable signs that your dog loves you and cares for you. After all, once you know how your dog shows affection, it'll strengthen your bond even more.
One of the most well-known dog behaviors that proves your pup has a big heart and is a sign your dog loves you is their self-appointed role as your home’s welcoming committee. "A big-hearted dog greets those with relaxed body language—soft eyes, a gently wagging tail and loose, wiggly body language," Kenny explains. "They’re likely going to be able to approach with curiosity, confidence and excitement."
