As any dog owner knows, pet dogs are not like family members, they are family members. They might have a little bit more fur than the human members of the family (most of which is deeply embedded in our couches!), but they are just as loved, and of course love us back.
Unfortunately, dogs aren’t allowed to join their human family members everywhere, so sometimes they need to be left with different humans. Naturally, a lot of dogs miss their humans while they are away. Luckily for this dog, however, he had an adorable pet sitter to comfort him while he was missing his family.
Burt the dog kept looking out the window of his pet sitter’s house when his humans went away, and missed them so much. Jack understood how sad he was, so he stood next to him at the window and gave him some comforting strokes. It is so cute to watch this young boy feel such empathy for a sad dog, and stand by him to keep him company and comfort him.
Sometimes it just takes a little bit of extra TLC to make upset dogs feel better. That is the case with these shelter dogs, who are comforted by the high school students who read to them. The comforting and rehabilitation work both ways, too, as is the case with these shelter dogs that are matched with inmates. What a truly remarkable bond!
