Absolutely! I am so glad you found that bond. I too suffer from depression and don’t know what I would do without my best friend. I hope you’re well. ♥️

[@jamescarrington5521]

My partner, who was very close to his mother, actually SEEMED OK after her transition from this earthly realm and into the next, but....he wasn't the same, and I knew that he was very depressed, but he was trying to hide it. Well, I had always had dogs growing up, but he never did; he has asthma, BUT...one day, I thought to myself, a dog! He needs a dog, because he loves to nurture babies, so he'll bond with a short-haired dog. SO....I took in a 2 mos. old Pit Bull rescue puppy, and he was sort of pissed, at first....but NOW?! These two are INSEPARABLE! After I house trained this pup, which took all of 2-1/2 weeks because this breed of dog is VERY SMART, those two are in their own little world, myself be damned sometimes, lol. I don't care....I love having a dog in my life again! I wake up every morning with this pup crammed right up next to me, lengthwise, with his big, fat, wide head propped up on my pillow next to my head, snoring away. This dog loves everyone he meets, too! I believe that this dog has actually saved my partner's life from a downward spiral of sleeping pills and depression, absolutely!! Dogs enrich our lives!!❤❤

[@mulel_]

This is a pure description of the bond between me and our family dog. We got him when he was 8 months old, and at the time he slept in a cage. The first night he cried the entire time, so I(I was 11 or something at the time) took my pillow and blanket and laid next to him, on the floor, for the entire night. I remember him putting his little snout in the corner closest to my face and the morning after he wouldn’t leave me alone. He is the best thing to ever happen to me. Now, 8 years later, he is still by my side through everything; He didn’t leave my bedside more then absolutely necessary when I had cancer, and had to be convinced to go out to pee and such. He is the kindest soul and a true blessing

[@loyaltyaboveall2617]

This is beautiful and made me tear up. I wish humans had this level of loyalty

What a special bond you have, you were there for him when he was lonely and scared off unfamiliar house so he said "I'll never forget you stayed by my side" how precious!

I'm so sorry and feel your pain. I lost my heart dog, a rescued Pomchi I named Rose. She traveled everywhere with me, to see family that live in another state or on fun spontaneous outings. She was the perfect partner when I traveled alone. She has been gone about 4 yrs now, and I still burst into tears if I see a photo or try and spread her ashes in her favorite place. I even wrote a song about her not long after I got her, and I want to sing it while spreading her ashes where she loved to run and occasionally chase a rabbit or squirrel. I often wondered what would happen if she actually caught up to one..she'd likely lick it to death 😊 I now have 2 pups. A Morkie with a wonky leg, and a Yorkiepoo named after a character played by Audrey Hepburn, Lula Mae, and I call her Lulu. I rescued her also, and like her "brother" her world revolves around not me, but my partner Dave. I told him I'm going to keep bringing rescues home until I find one that loves me more. I think he's spoiling them with Bully sticks 🤔💜 I'm truly sorry for your loss, but I believe people who love and are loved by a dog, will see that dog and all the others again, in Paradise. 💜

It’s been over 7 months now that he has passed and the hurt that I feel from losing him has never gone away. It never will. Me and his sister Cedes miss him terribly. I’m running a marathon in 2 1/2 weeks wearing the same shirt I had on holding him when he took his last breath. It was an honor to be part of his life and I told him how proud of him I was.

@@rmojo1974 all three of my doggies have been “supervisors”, so to speak. It’s part of their spaniel nature; being hunting dogs they have a high prey drive, but also have a “follow the leader” mentality regarding their respective roles. It’s a good thing management is so cute. I would’ve complained about it otherwise. But seriously, since I don’t have children I love them like they are my kids. It’s not from lack of trying on my end; I have tried, numerous times, to have a child of my own. I’ve accepted it’s not in the cards for me right now, if ever, so I’m taking my maternal instincts and feelings out on my doggies. I never expected them to feel the same in turn. The fact that it is, is just a bonus.

I lost my Koro and my 3rd one, Kenji and was devistated but hachiko is still my best friend. I can't imagine not having had them in my world. If this is your first dog. Know that shibas are nothing like other dogs. Ask dogs are amazing but shibas are above and beyond.

Cleanest breed ever.

This is the reason why I love dogs. They are adorable, lovely and protective on each other.

[@pupmommie]

I can’t imagine a life without dogs. My Aussie and Border Collie are both imprinted on me! 🙌

[@karami8844]

I have a Blue Heeler and she does all of these. I love her. ❤️

[@HufflinPuffs]

True for my dogs. But especially for my new puppy who’s almost 10 months. She’s bark happy around things or people she doesn’t know but and often run to me and my husband if she’s uncertain or uncomfortable about something. And she gives the best cuddles.

[@srividya2417]

Absolutely correct, nothing in the world, better than a 🐕

[@everevelyn1094]

My husband gets so jealous that I’m our dog’s favorite 😂. She loves him too, of course, but I’m her mommy! ❤

[@girlthatbelongstoshiva25]

And i never felt this lucky ever before, it's just like my furry pup's unsaid words and confessed words are here and this bring literal tears to my eyes that my angel loves me so much without expecting anything he gives me the purest unconditional love ❤️🌸

Medication for our daily health takes a distant second place to our ever faithful and forgiving DOG.

I have a chihuahua and she and I are obsessed with each other!! ❤❤ I’m totally her mother!

[@keylargo7647]

I lost my Golden, Blanca, February 1, 2024 at 5:30 pm. She turned 14 on January 26th. My heart is broken, my soul shattered. She was the kindest, funniest spirit I have ever known, I am 79 years old. My final act of kindness was the hardest thing I have ever done. I am so greatful for the 7 years we shared, yes she was a rescue😢😢😢😢

[@amandamarie6013]

I'm so sorry for your loss, I lost mine last night. Within a span of 24 hours. She was fine, and then she was gone 😔

[@keylargo7647]

@@amandamarie6013 You have my deepest sympathy. I can only say grief is the price we pay for the love our dogs gave us. What a steep price, but worth every second

[@debbie3667]

Dogs give you the best years of your life and one of the worst days. That's true but I can't live without them in my life. I have two golden pups, siblings, currently. I'm 69 years old so they will be my last. That thought devastated me, but I don't want them to out live me. I am sorry for your loss and know how you feel.

[@Caauweezy_92]

Loved this🥰! This video makes me feel even loved more by my dogs🐶🐶🐶

[@Shaytastical]

I just lost both of my Yorkies, Lila-16 and Ricky-13, within 4 months of each other in 2023. My heart aches everyday. Dogs are truly the most amazing gift we can have. Missing my babies, they were attached to my hip!

[@beverlywallace4920]

So sorry for your loss. My family has also had dogs pass soon after each other, so I know how hard it is. Hope your memories bring you comfort.

[@marilynhodgkinson5299]

There's nothing better than having a dog. I had 2 till recently 1 passed away. Brother and sister, l still have the girl. I still cry and miss my Buddy.

Dogs are phenomenal. They’re like little mute children. ❤

I have 3 best buddies Ramus,Frankee,Bridger. They are family same as my wife and myself. They are loved.. . 😊

[@akbender]

A lot of these happen with my pug but for different reasons. he stays close to control me, sleeps and cuddles with me because he think it's his rightful spot, licks me when I'm sweaty because he loves salty things, runs ahead in case he spots something he wants (so he can sprint off before I notice it). He does get my mood though, but that also applies when I am annoyed and then he's annoyed and gives out to our other dog for no reason. Oh and he would NEVER look at me or pay attention to me in a new environment, he just gets too excited for adventure/new people/potential snacks. This also means his attention is never on me if there is anybody else that is giving him the time of day. But of course is the BEST BOY!

[@aalberto4961]

Dogs are the best!! The most loyal with unconditional love..

Dogs,all animals,,our mini me's,have that unspoken bond with us!!!!!! Im autistic, adhd Ptsd,I have literally learned SO MUCH from all my little heroes!!!!You don't need a human to tell you anything,just speak to your Dogs they know the answer before you ask them!!!I'm on my own ,no family, I have everything I could possibly dream of,My 2 new pups,1 sleeps over my head like a hat the other round my neck like a scarf!!My guard and protector!!!The best thing is hearing their paws on the floor and watching n listening to them with the sheer delight of eating their biscuit!!!!!DON'T get any of these pleasures from humans!!!They make life worth living!!!!!!❤

[@iriecabe4781]

I’ve had my pittie since he was 3 months old, but known and have bonded with him since he was 4 weeks old. He does 14/15 of these. Such a sweet loving boy, unfortunately Al of these qualities comes with very bad separation anxiety. He’s my best friend so 90% he is with me no matter where I go. Dogs are the best.

ive had dogs all my life, 1.5 years ago i got myself an english cream golden retriever puppy and it was instant love. i never felt this for any other dog, i used to think my husband was my soul mate, nope its my dog. now, we are best fiends and i want to cry every time i think of him.

[@Texas_Made_]

Awww😢. My 2 male dogs definitely have a strong bond with me. They always protect me❤

[@nickp5511]

Not bragging but I’m a dog magnet:) all the dogs I’ve ever had treat me this way. My daughter’s family dog (yellow lab) won’t leave my side when I visit weekly. My oldest son has 2 huskies and a Maltese when I’m at the house outside one husky sitting by my side, one under my chair and the little one on my lap:) my other son has two huskies and they won’t leave me alone. My current husky follows me all the time, lays by my chair, sits on my feet, howls when I leave, howls when I come home, and leans so hard on me while petting her that if I move away fast she almost falls on her side! I’m blessed! Dogs are great!

[@michellepiszczor1806]

Our trainer gave strict instruction on this! My boy listens to me more than hubby bc of her instruction. Which is a good thing since I’m training him to be my service dog. Love my Lab boy🐕‍🦺🐾🐾

[@Heather-xm9ul]

I had ten straight years with my imprinted dog. He loved me so much! I absolutely adored that monster, and rewarded just about every scrap of affection he ever gave me. I will miss him, and continue to love him, and the memory of him, until I die. There is no greater love on this planet than that which comes from a good dog.

[@iashakezula]

Growing up , we had dogs but they were only treated as guard work dogs…it was a different generation in the 70’s, they were even chained to their location around the house. So When I was small child ,one dog that was not chained was closer to me, I was upset at the dog that we took over who had puppies because she bit and killed her own. So I was angry at it that I was shooing her away and I noticed the other dog started getting upset as well and started barking and chasing her away from me. This dog sat next to me as I mourn for the puppies .That was the first time I know that a dog understand and can feel your emotions.I will never forget that moment. Now in my 50s, I consider them as my children and have bonded closely to one chihuahua mix ps we have more lol ..love him so much and dread the day I will loose. I am angry why dogs have a very short life span .But I believe they have souls and we will be reunited again

[@sahej6939]

maybe she didn’t want her puppies to go through that chained up terrible lifestyle. a different time? an excuse for abuse

[@DinaMustajbasic]

The most valuable animal in the whole world😊😊😊😊❤❤

[@SDale1105]

My Shih tzu has a million percent imprinted on me😄🩷 I am pretty sure she thinks I am her actual mother; she goes everywhere I go, she has a special bathroom bed for when I have to shower and get ready, of course sleeps with me, watches TV, works with me- everything 😂🙏🏼 I love her so so much tho, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Why can’t dogs live as long as people, ugh 🥺😔💔

[@srvfan454]

We really don't deserve them. They have such big hearts.

[@ADragonNerd]

It's nice to know both my dogs do basically everything listed here other than herding

[@demonkingbadger6689]

To be fair, most of the time i have seen dogs do it, is with toddlers and such.

[@lifeissweet9826]

My cocker does something like herding. She gets in front of me and keeps looking back to make sure I am following her. Sometimes she stops and I have to walk around her. She seems to think I need her guidance. Weird.

[@girlthatbelongstoshiva25]

Actions speak louder than words and my babe always loved me unconditionally he woofed and woofed saying i love you and proved it with his every action ❤️🌸

My husband adopted a 10 month old pup. This pup was suppose to be a companion dog for my husband. When I am home, Buck follows me everywhere. The bathroom, loves to take a shower w/ me. Stays w/ me in the kitchen.sits under the table when I’m eating or crafting. Always wants to go to work w/ me. ❤😂
