Hey Peeps,
I’ve noticed that whenever I sit down or lie down, my dog always wants to come and lay on top of me. It’s cute, but I’m curious about why dogs do this. Is it a sign of affection, or could there be other reasons behind this behavior? I’d love to hear your thoughts and insights on why dogs like to lay on their owners!
Thanks in advance …
Dogs often lay on their owners for comfort, warmth, and emotional security. This behavior shows their trust and affection. However, sudden or excessive clinginess might signal health or behavioral issues. If your dog’s behavior changes, consult a vet to rule out any problems and consider training for more independence.
Dogs develop deep emotional bonds specifically with their owners, not just any person. When your dog lies on you, it’s a clear sign of trust, safety, and affection. They’re seeking your love and comfort in return. Plus, dogs are naturally drawn to warmth, so your body heat is an added bonus for them.
