Important family members include our pets. And within a caring and devoted group, dogs are the most dependable. They are regarded as man’s best friends for a reason. No matter what, they will always be there for you, and they always smile when they see us.

No one will welcome you with as much warmth as a dog will when we are gone for a while. They give you the impression that you are so deeply loved, and there is research to support this feeling. According to numerous scientific studies, when a person looks at their dog, their body generates the hormone oxytocin, which is also created when they look at their young child. Because of this, we practically treat our animals as though they were our children and develop a link with them that makes us believe they are aware of our feelings. Of course, there is also a ton of data to support the idea that our dogs can read and comprehend humans.

Overall, a dog and its owner have relationships that are based only on love and understanding, which is why we find it difficult to tolerate extended separations. Even if leaving them for an afternoon to buy groceries is difficult, leaving them for weeks or months at a time is far harder.

While he was away for a few months on business, one man had to say goodbye to his cherished German Shepherd, Freya.

When the owner of Freya was finally able to return home, he and his family chose to surprise the devoted pet. Knowing that the reunion would be unforgettable, the family hid her owner behind the door before letting the camera roll. They weren’t mistaken. Freya exclaimed in joy with a shriek! It was a very tender moment to witness two of your closest friends reuniting after some time apart.
