Dogs act like their owners for many reasons. It is called the "Mirror Method" for training, where you show them what to do. For example, some dogs dig because they see their owners digging in the garden, so this makes them figure that digging is okay and the correct behavior. It makes total since considering we humans do things. If we do something, shouldn't it mean dogs should be able to, too?
In the dog's mind, if his or her owner does something, it means that it is the correct behavior and that it can/should be copied for approval and/or praise.
