What does it signify to have a dog? They serve as our most loyal companions, providing us with love and devotion; they also act as exemplary security guardians. For centuries, dogs have been by our side, yet many individuals fail to recognize that dogs are not mere playthings. They possess distinct personalities and individual needs. While a majority of dogs are perceived as adorable and affectionate, numerous breeds exhibit traits of confidence, stubbornness, and even aggression.
