Woman swears her dog talks to her

It might sound weird, but for a moment, it sounded like the dog said, "Love you too."

Although dogs can’t speak in words, they certainly have a way of communicating with their humans – often in the most adorable ways.

And yes, there are times when we wish we could hear what they would sound like if they could talk...

But nothing beats the bond you share with your dog. The love and affection they shower on their owners is often the highlight of your day.

According to VCA Hospitals, "Although many scientists agree that dogs understand specific words, some don’t believe they comprehend full sentences. They argue that saying 'trees, birds, grass, walk' invokes the same meaning as 'let’s go for a walk': the dog may not understand every word in the sentence, but he gets 'walk'. And if you say those words with enthusiasm, your dog will bolt for the front door! Body language, tone, and words are all involved in effective canine communication."

A woman from the US recently shared a heartwarming video of her dog, Pluto, a Shih Tzu-Yorkie mix, communicating with her. 

Naturally, she sounded like a proud mom who believed her dog was one-of-a-kind – it’s a mom thing, after all.

But after giving Pluto a chance, we couldn't help but agree – this dog is something special. It really did sound like he was barking "love you" to her.

Her video got over 2.8 million views and resonated with dog lovers who also heard Pluto bark "love you".

The comments section was full of hilarious responses, with some dog owners jokingly dissing their own pets. 

One person wrote, "My dog just eats and farts," while another joked, "I showed my dog this, and he said it's AI."
