so i was reading on another forum that you shouldn't hug your dogs because the dog may see it as a threat or you trying to assert dominance over them, and that dogs are generally very uncomfortable being hugged, i also read this somewhere else, but don't remember where.

I have always hugged my dogs, and my dogs don't seem to mind it, and when i open my arms to them for a hug them come prancing right over to me for it with big wagging tails and tons of kisses?

Has anyone ever experienced a problem hugging their own dog? i could see maybe not hugging strange dogs that you don't know but idk i like being able to hug my dogs, is this something that you think i should stop doing/not do to my future dogs?Do you hug your dogs? What are your thoughts on this?
