I don't think people who say that understand the deep bond that is formed between a dog and its family. I haven't worked for years due to ill health so Khan was a constant companion. I have no doubt that he knew when I was down or struggling. I usually use a mobility scooter to get around, but occasionally I'm able to walk. Khan would pull all the time when I took him out on the mobility scooter but he would walk quietly beside me if I was walking, slowing right down if I started to struggle. He would even ignore any cat that he saw which he would never normally do.
