Dogs love humans because, a very long time ago, when humans were still evolving, humans domesticated wolfs.... i don't know how, or why, but they did, and it proved to be a excellent alliance. Wolfs turned out to be amazing guards, with there amazing sense of smell. So, over the generations, wolfs became more and more domesticated by humans.... Probably because the wolfs that were mean and didn't like humans would runaway usually, so only the nicer, more friendly wolfs would stay behind and be bred with other friendly and nice wolfs to make the domesticated dog that we know and love today.

∙ 14y agoNo, they don't, if what you mean is "Do dogs understand English" for example. It may seem so, but what happens often is that dogs train US to do their bidding, so it appears that some kind of mental/verbal communication is going on. Dogs understand our behaviors (body language) on some level, and they respond to our rewards and other behaviors in predictable ways. I'm not dissing dogs, or claiming that they have no 'feelings'. I LOVE dogs. But training dogs involves much much more than our incorrect ideas about their understanding of our speech. Watch the Dog Whisperer. One of the best programs on TV.

∙ 14y agobecause we feed them, keep them safe, and provide affection to them so in return they love you. In the same way if you treat a dog badly he will hate you and want to murder you.
