If you ever wonder who a person truly is, just bring them around your pet, if you have one. I am an animal magnet by nature, and I love it. This is a trait that a person is born with, and not something you can just learn. When an animal shows their full trust, they will totally relax, to the point of going limp.
This little girl adores me, and she is not even mine. But, I get to see her each week. She gets super excited when I drive up, and jumps all around until I open the car door. At that point, my face gets washed and she nuzzles into my lap.
Not even her owner gets this type of reaction from her. She just lays down moping if I am not there with my team. This is how much trust she shows me. She is in a total state of relaxation.
