Before bedtime or a nap, my dog spins around like a furry tornado. Is this just habit, or does it serve a purpose?

I always wonder if my dog misses me when I leave for work. Is it just waiting for food, or does it genuinely miss my presence?

My dog seems to find the worst-smelling spots to roll in during walks. Why does it do this, and how can I stop it?

My dog tilts its head in the cutest way when I speak to it. Is it trying to understand me, or is this just a quirky habit?
