Why Dogs are Man’s Best Friend?

Dogs are man’s best friend for many reasons. One of the primary reasons is their faithful devotion to their owners. Dogs have been bred to work alongside humans for centuries and as a result, they have formed a strong bond with us.



Introduction

Dogs are also extremely social creatures who thrive on human interaction. They are always eager to please and also willing to go to great lengths to please their owners. As a result, they make excellent companions and steadfast protectors.

Dogs are also extremely intelligent and can be trained to perform a wide range of tasks. Dogs have proven time and again that they are incredibly versatile and valuable animals, from herding sheep to assisting the blind.

People and dogs have developed a symbiotic relationship because dogs have been domesticated to the point where they rely on us for survival, and we rely on them almost as much. Most dog owners will tell you that their dog is a member of their family.

Finally, dogs provide many health benefits to their owners. Studies have shown that owning a dog can help to reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and even improve cardiovascular health.

It’s the best feeling in the world to come home after a long day and see a big waggy tail waiting for you. When we return home, the dogs show their affection by jumping for joy and being overjoyed that we have returned to see them.


Dog’s and human history

In fact, the phrase “man’s best friend” first appeared in the American Supreme Court in 1870, when a brilliant lawyer named George Graham Vest defended a man who adored his coonhound, Old Drum. Vest contended that when a neighbour killed Old Drum for trespassing, he killed more than just a pet; he killed an important family member.


In one of my previous blogs, I’d mentioned Hachiko: The Faithful Dog who demonstrates that dogs are man’s best friend by patiently waiting for his owner for 11 years and dedicating his life to him in the hope that he would return.

He was so devoted to his human that he waited for him at a Tokyo train station every day. Hachiko saw his owner off from the front door and greeted him at the end of the day at the nearby Shibuya Station.

The pair went about their daily lives until May 1925, when Professor Ueno failed to return home on his usual train. The professor died at the university after suffering a heart attack. and never returned to the train station, where his friend Hachiko was waiting for him. He’d waited for him at the same station for the past 11 years.

Overall, the combination of loyalty, social nature, intelligence, versatility, and health benefits makes dogs the ideal companion and explains why they are known as man’s best friend.
