Redditor With Toxic Trait Refuses To Permanently Adopt The Dog Her Boyfriend Has Bonded With

Manda Garcia

Dogs trust you because of the strong connection you share with them. Since this bond is built on trust, dogs and their owners, who have a close relationship, are more enjoyable to be around. They experience less frustration with each other and have better success with training.

During interactions, both people and dogs make eye contact, which releases hormones that facilitate bonding. Take Redditor u/Honest_Situation_438, for instance, whose boyfriend formed a strong connection with a dog they were temporarily housing, even though they couldn't keep the dog permanently. OP has a notable trait—she gets bored easily. As her story goes, this trait is why she doesn't want to be a parent or have full-time pets, aside from her rabbit.
