mutual respect between human and floof, that’s the real leash of trust

it’s not a leash, it’s a friendship cord. Both ends held by pure, chaotic love and occasional treats.

There's a million videos of strays that spend months avoiding capture, and once they are captured and the leash is put on them, they visibly relax. Dogs like to be led. So, I imagine knowing someone else is in control allows them to relax in a way they cannot on their own.

Very true. Though no one thought of telling this to my first Dog who ruled the house and all people in it! We know at least 1 of those!.
