PetsBlogs Editorial
PetsBlogs Editorial is the collective voice behind PetsBlogs.com, shaped by a small group of lifelong pet people across generations. Between us, we've shared our lives with animals across rural, suburban, and city homes. Not veterinarians or professional trainers. Just people who have spent lifetimes paying attention, learning through everyday life with animals, and writing honestly about it. Everything we share comes from real experience and a genuine love for the creatures who make themselves part of our lives.

It is quite interesting to learn the types of friendships that exist between chimpanzees, dolphins, hyenas, elephants, baboons and horses. The discoveries could change the assumptions we have about how nonhuman societies work and perhaps change how we think about our friendships.
