I understand that dogs do all those things.
My only question is whether it's because they rely on you for food or because they truly love you.
Maybe they talk with the other dogs in the neighborhood...
"Oh, I see the humps car is pulling up....here we go..time for the big show..."
"Remember to smile."
"I will. I'm just really getting tired of this...We really need to think about getting out of this town. We can hunt or something."
"It won't work. You remember what happened to Bruno, right? He was a strapping 120 pound Adonis. He ran away and they found him rummaging through dumpsters, weighing 72 pounds, with his coat all nappy. It wasn't pretty."
"Yeah, yeah. I remember."
"So we have to lick them, watch their crappy movies with them, pant and wag our tails. Not much in the grand scheme of things."
"I guess you're right. Alright...see you later."
And then he runs off and does the whole glad to see you, I'm so happy you are home routine.
I'm just saying that food might be the great motivator for all of it.
