Bonding with our dog
For thousands of years, humans and dogs have shared a unique and privileged relationship. More than just companions, dogs bring joy, love and support. But where does this complicity with our dog come from, and how can we strengthen it?
A deep, historic link
The relationship between humans and dogs dates back 30,000 years, when the first wolves approached human camps. As valuable allies, these animals have evolved into loyal friends, capable of understanding our emotions and sharing our lives.
Why dogs understand us so well
Dogs interpret our expressions, gestures and tones with remarkable empathy. They sense our joy, share our sorrows and know how to offer comfort. This unique bond makes them indispensable in roles such as therapy or assistance.
