My Dog, my Best Friend! 🐕

Thank you for participating in my research into

THE SECRET of the SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP between DOGS & HUMANS 💞


What is it that makes a dog such a wonderful friend to people all over the world? 🌏


This is the main question I hope to find an answer to.

_______________________________________

Completing the questionnaire takes 10-15 minutes. There are 6 open + 16 multiple choice questions 🖊


Some answers require an EXPLANATION. This will give me a better understanding of the results.


WOULD YOU THEREFORE PLEASE READ THE QUESTIONS CAREFULLY AND ANSWER AS COMPLETELY AS POSSIBLE 🙏

_______________________________________

You can only submit 1 questionnaire, about 1 dog.

This means that if you have (had) multiple dogs, you may choose one about whom you answer the questions.

This could also be a dog that has passed away 🌈

In that case, please read questions 3 to 12 in the past tense.


I hope you'll enjoy answering the questions about

Your Dog, your Best Friend!! 🐾


Love & Kindness,

Sandra 🌸
