There's an endless amount of scientific data proving that dogs can develop strong bonds with their owners. People aren't kidding when they say they love their dog or their dog loves them,(19)but were rather ignorant about the nature of the relationships that form between dogs.
In an effort to understand the matter further, I spoke with doctorMarkBeckhoff a researcher and former professor of animal behavior. The doctor's response to the question of whether or not dogs can fall in love like humans do was a straight“Of course!”(20)He went on to say that if love is defined as a long term commitment,meaning dogs seek one another out when they're apart, they're happywhen they're reunited, they protect one another, they feed one another, they raise their children together.(20)Then, of course,dogs love each other.
Now our furry friends don't really experience romantic love, like in the movies, but they can form deep and lasting bonds with their fellow dogs as well as humans.(21)In fact, evidence shows that most dogs stay with one partner their whole lives.In actuality, love between dogs can be even more intimate than human relationships. When they interact, they aren't afraid to smell each other and will express themselves clearlyand honestly.Once again, it seems we have a lot to learn from dogs.
