Trusting and gentle? I've never met a single animal that falls in this category.
My dog fits this. I've never seen anything like it. He is even better than other dogs (who seem to be pretty good at love and loyalty, etc) and radiates kindness and love. He gives "hugs"--presses himself against you and "loves" at you. It is amazing. He's a better "person" than I am!
I guess I just see them as reactive chemistry to their environment. We say "love", but, in my mind, it's just subjective perception that has created the concept that fits our bias as "he's so loving". To me, I just see a stimulation based on the way the dogs puzzle pieces were put in order. ... I see humans the same way, really.
Trusting and gentle are two words that I've never seen in an animal.
