I’ve recently been working longer hours than usual away from home. My dog has been much more physically affectionate when I’m around because he misses me (cries). For example, at night he sleeps against my leg so that he’ll know if I get up. Things have been tough recently but knowing that this furry monster that lives in my house loves me has been helping.
Dogs are so great for therapy like that. My dog tells me dozens of times a day how much she loves me, and sometimes that snaps me out of my self-defeating mood.
