As most dog owners will confirm, a four-legged friend is quick to offer a reassuring nuzzle when you are feeling down and low. But its natural empathy also extends to strangers, scientists claim, the Daily Mail reported.
据英国报道,大多数养狗的主人都有这样的经历,他们情绪低落时,这个四条腿的朋友就会马上用鼻子在主人周围蹭来蹭去,给他们提供安抚。不过,科学家指出,狗与陌生人也有这种与生俱来的情感共鸣。
They believe dogs naturally seek to reassure humans in distress.
科学家认为,狗天生会帮助人类消除悲伤。
In tests, when either their owner or a stranger started crying, most dogs approached them providing reassurance and comfort.
经过试验,不管是狗的主人还是陌生人开始哭泣时,大部分的狗都会靠近他们,带去安慰。
