A Loving Glance
When it comes to attention, dogs can't seem to get enough of it. But there's one type they really enjoy. Dogs love a loving glance.
Recent studies have shown that making eye contact while cuddling with your dog releases a love hormone in them known as oxytocin.
Every time you gaze lovingly into your dog’s eyes, their levels of oxytocin go up, and so do yours. In fact, studies have shown that this action produces the same biological response as a mother looking at her child.
Take a moment, speak softly to your dog, pet them gently, and stare lovingly at them.
But, remember… you should only maintain direct eye contact who knows and trusts you. A dog who is not familiar with you is more likely to interpret this gesture as a threat or a challenge.
