Here is the puzzle:
Because they are so gregariously sociable, and because they consider us to be
their -ack leaders, dogs cra-e our attention.
Being touched is soothing and reassuring for dogs, -ust as it is for us.
Stroking your dog reduces its blood -ressure, its heart rate, and its skin
tem-erature.
It calms its sense of arousal. De-endent dogs demand attention most, but e-en
dominant, aggresi-e canines socilit attention from a strong human leader.
