I sometimes think of a discussion we were having at the table at my uncle's house in Italy. His daughter - my cousin - had a neighborhood dog that became hers and that her teens liked. He said that they like people alright, but probably prefer other dogs to people. It turns out that they like their humans more. They were a newborn with its mother and littermates. If you got the dog after that, you've become their "parent" in every which way,especially if they've chosen you as their person. -
