This nonfiction article showed how when you stare at a dog for a little bit longer than you normally would, you will have an instant connection. There were studies that showed that if you stare into a wolf’s eyes, you don’t have the same connection that you would with a dog. A simple stare lights up yours and your dogs day and it makes you both happy.It also draws you and your dog closer together.

I used to think the only way you and your dog can have a better connection, is by playing and hugging them. I also didn’t know that it didn’t work with wolves, but only with dogs. Now I know that you can also bond with your dog by staring at them for a long period of time. That would show your dog that you love them.

There were a lot of questions that I still had about this passage. One of them was what made them start this research. I would ask them that because I always like to know who or what inspired them. Another question is do the scientists that researched this have dogs. I would ask them that because then they can test on themselves and their dog.
