Pet owners love to hug their dogs. We all know that. But here is something you may not know. Dogs love to hug their owners, too. Sounds crazy, I know, but I have proof.

Sometimes when I pick up my dog, she'll wrap her arms around me, and if that doesn't sound like a hug, then I don't know what does. 

Here's my other piece of evidence. This entire list. That's probably the more compelling argument. Actually, forget probably, I'm going to say definitely because these are dog hugs we're talking about here, which are objectively better than any other species' hug. It's science.

1. Never let me go.
