B

①Why is your dog so interested in your dirty socks, even to the point of stealing and chewing (咀嚼) on them? PetHonesty, a company for dog health, may give you a better understanding of why your four-legged friend can't help but give in to those dirty socks.
②One of the main reasons is the familiar smell of their owners, which is comforting. In fact, PetHonesty says that to your dog, your dirty, smelly sock is like “a bottle filled with his favorite smell—you!” Dogs may chew on things that smell like their owners as a “comforting” way, especially if they are experiencing boredom or worries about separation.
③In addition, chewing on socks is a natural behavior for dogs. The texture(质地) of socks can be comforting to chew on, especially for baby dogs who are teething. As PetHonesty explains, “To a dog, socks are soft. They are chewy and the texture of the socks feels comforting in their mouths. ” This chewing excites their brains and helps keep their teeth healthy.
④Finally, dogs may see socks as valuable “resources(资源)” worth protecting or guarding. PetHonesty said that dogs see certain things as important “resources” that they believe are worth guarding with all their power. This could be especially true if the sock smells like their owner.
⑤However, chewing socks can be harmful to dogs as they might eat them and become sick. To prevent it from happening, it's important to make sure they get enough exercise and care. Dog owners should pay attention to dogs' needs to help deal with this worrisome situation.
