Answers to Questions Kids Ask! - Where "Why?" Turns to "Wow!"

Q:
Why do dogs like it when we pet them?
A:
In the wild, dogs (like wolves) groom each other to show love and that they are part of a pack. They will even lick each other. Petting your pet dog is kind of like this. It tells the dog that you love them and that they are a part of your family.
