Have you ever noticed your dog coming over for a cuddle just when you need it most?
Dogs are incredibly attuned to us. They notice subtle changes in our body language, energy, breathing, and emotions. Often, when they’re seeking closeness, they’re not just looking for comfort themselves, they may be responding to our need for connection and regulation too.
A gentle lean, a head on your lap, or simply sitting quietly beside you can help both human and dog feel safe, calm, and connected.
Sometimes the best therapy has four paws and a wagging tail.
