OP here
I remember as a little girl the dog next door to my grandma's house was a huge (in my eyes) german shepherd. He would lick my hands through the fence and we would race, me running up and down my long backyard (rowhouses) and him running up and down his. Once my grandma yelled at me about something, it wasn't a big deal but she wanted me to come inside. So she came outside and picked me up, threw me over her shoulder like a sack of potatoes and carried me inside. The dog went crazy, howling and barking like mad. You would have thought that there were 3 dogs from all the noise he was making. When I got older I finally understood that all that was because he was protective of me and thought that my grandma was gonna hurt me. Dogs feel love. They give more than they take, and it's always unconditional. |
Not only that, humans sometimes eat each other in times of starvation too. |
