I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.
Sweetie: Lady Human, why do humans throw their arms around things and squeeze them? It’s not very pleasant.
Me: We hug people and animals to show affection and comfort, a connection, support. How do you feel if I put my arms around you like this?
Sweetie: Trapped.
Doodlebug: You’re okay, Sweetie. I’m watching your back. No threat detected.
MoonCat: Just so we’re clear, Lady Human, don’t even think about it.
