pack play and bonding ritual

Two of my pack members, Cassius and Bunny, are completely different breeds yet they share the same energy. They have a particularly close relationship where they use play as a bonding ritual to display their affection and respect.

In the video, you’ll notice a lot of physical touch; however there is absolutely no aggression involved (even though you see some teeth). The licking is a display of affection and has a soothing effect on Bunny.

It’s fascinating to watch dogs interact and see the deep and mutual respect they have for one another.
