DOGS ARE FULL OF THE LOVE HORMONE
Dogs’ bodies produce oxytocin when in the presence of their human counterparts – and they get a big burst of it every time they make eye contact with their bonded humans.
When a dog’s brain is flooded with the hormone, it’s better able to follow the social cues of its owners. And the longer a dog maintains its owners’ gaze, the more elevated the levels of oxytocin released.
In fact, dog levels of oxytocin are on average five times higher than those of cats.
