🐾✨ Dogs live in a world of touch—through their fur, whiskers, paws, and skin. From the brush of a breeze across their coat to the feedback of their paw pads on the ground, every sensation shapes how they feel safe, comfortable, and connected. Their coats, whether double, wiry, silky, or bare, make each dog’s tactile experience entirely unique.

Touch is also a language of love. Gentle strokes along the chest or shoulders can soothe and bond, while hugs or pats on the head may feel overwhelming. By noticing how dogs experience touch, we learn to communicate care in a way that truly speaks their language 🤲💛🐶.
