There is a very strong bond between children and animals. Friendship between babies and especially dogs is described in ancient books and chronicles. And this is not just a coincidence, but a fact that has long been proven by science. Dogs are capable of the most friendly feelings, and their loyalty is no secret to anyone. Dogs immediately become the child’s best friend, and the child finds boundless love and support in his four-legged friend. Dogs always feel the mood of their little owner and try in every way to cheer him up. Various scientific studies have shown that dogs are actually able to feel the emotional state of a person and especially a child, since children are more open and do not hide their true feelings. The question arises, how can dogs understand the mood of a person? For animals, the main indicators are facial expressions, gestures and intonation. Over time, they get used to their owner .
Many families are sure that the dog has a beneficial effect on the development and upbringing of children. In one of these families in Germany, baby Quinn was born. Their pet German Shepherd Larry has been with the girl since the first days. Larry immediately accepted the baby as his friend and he realized that the girl was very defenseless. He decided to always be there to protect and carry with her. When Quinn grew up and started to crawl, Larry became her best friend. They played and had fun together. Larry teaches Quinn how to crawl quickly and also allows her to sit on his back and tug on his tail. It’s just incredible to see how carefully a dog treats a child. Quinn loves his four-legged friend very much and constantly wants to kiss him. And Larry answers her the same.
Despite the fact that an adult dog has the intelligence of a three-year-old baby, he is able to “educate” even a schoolboy. Zoopsychologists note that looking into the eyes of a person, a dog can establish an emotional connection with him. Dogs value family and good relations.
