If your dog snuggles up to you at night or during cold weather, he may be doing so to keep warm or to give you his warmth. Dogs have a higher body temperature than humans and can act as living heating pads.
They may also be concerned about your health and want to protect you from catching a cold or hypothermia. By snuggling up to you, a dog shows its care and empathy.
Cuddling as a way to overcome fear or stress
