Dogs tend to choose who their owner is. Even though a dog seems to show his love equally among the family members, dogs could have a favorite. If your dog clearly shows more signs of attachment to you than the others, then you should feel really lucky.

However, there are some cases where dogs choose their owners just by their instincts.

Dogs show openness even to strangers. Perhaps they smell the aura that lets them know that a person is trustworthy. Although there is a quick explanation of that. According to PetsWorld, dogs are indiscreet in choosing their human.

“The canine naturally feel attracted to this individual; in some cases, said person may not singularly cater to the needs of the pet,” they wrote in their article. “Still the dog feels an instinctive affinity to his chosen master; it feels relaxed, secure, and needless to say, playful around him/her.”

Related to this, here is a video of a dog declaring her love to a stranger with a hug.

A video clip circulated on the internet showing a dog putting her paws around a reporter’s leg. The whole story went like this: A news reporter visited a certain dog shelter to cover a story at the shelter. All the dogs in the shelter were just watching the stranger from a distance, but there was one dog who unafraid and drew closer to the man’s leg without hesitation. The reporter himself was shocked by what the dog showed him.

Watching her wrap her paws and lean her head against the man’s leg would break your heart.

The rescue dog just hugged the reporter’s leg and refused to let go of it. Fortunately, the reporter was not bothered by her and instead gave her love by petting her. We can’t stop thinking about what the dog might have gone through with how tight she squeezed the man’s leg. Judging from her innocently sad face, she must have been tired of being alone in the shelter.

It turned out that her hug became her life-changing story.

Thirty seconds of the dog clinging to the man’s leg was enough to convince him that she needed a home. It was also hard for the man to say no, as he was close to her sad, puppy eyes and he could probably feel the dog insistently waiting for him to take him home. It would be cold to reject her.

The reporter decided to adopt the dog and it was just the most tear-jerking and beautiful pet-owner story that the world has witnessed. The video was quick to spread on social media and it became even more famous than the scoop he went there for.
