If thatās not evidence that animals can āloveā then I donāt know what is. Very very touching.
My dog would have just peeād all over me. I guess thatās love of some sort.
Ah man, thatās cute.
When we go out for even half an hour, our little dachshund makes a sound like weāre in the middle of torturing her, itās freaky as hell. Because sheās actually quite visibly excited to see us, jumping around and licking and all that, but the whining and wailingā¦ we find it very cute, but Iām quite sure our neighbours think weāre gutting her.
ā¦ and sheās going to tell you all about it.
[Roughly Translated]: I thought Iād never see you again! Ever ever ever!
Iām currently dogsitting my parentsā 15 year old lab for a week while they are away. Iām also using a truck of theirs for some yard work. Every time I pull into the driveway with the truck she absolutely breaks down - the same kind of yelping and agonized āwhere have you been?ā. It breaks my heart to tell her itās just me, enough do that Iāve started parking the truck down the street a little.
I am so grateful my cat doesnāt do this.
Thatās probably even worse they can hear the truck a mile away. Now, theyāre wondering why their owners have abandoned them and moved a few blocks away and left them alone.
āWeāll eat you up we love you so!ā
Well, sheās 15 and fairly deaf at this point, so just the lack of visual is enough.
When I returned once after a long absence, my cat looked at me and walked over to where my cds (NOT my housemateās cd) were and, looking at me the entire time, squatted and peed on them.
If thatās not evidence animals can be vindictive jerks, then I donāt know what is.
(We made up shortly after incident, though.)
STOP CHOPPING ONIONS IN BOINGBOING!!! I am NOT crying!
Youāre lucky she didnāt find your shoes.
This dog definitely said āI love youā, well, āI wuw wooā to be precise, but he got the point across.
āYouāre back!.. Youāre back!ā @0:28
āI love you!.. I love you!ā @0:53, @1:32
[Did you miss me?] āYeesssss!ā @1:04
Good ear! I wonder if there are say, videos of people returning to their dogs in France after a long absence and if it is possible to hear some semblance of the language in the dogsā exuberant greetings.
Or just āHey! Hey!ā
With meaningful intonations.
OK, Iāll admit it: Iām such a sap sucker for these videos. They always make me tear up.
Donāt apologize for your empathy. the world would be a much better place if more people shared that trait.
