Dog owners increasingly consider themselves dog parents, and by extension, their dogs are a part of the family. Here at Rover, we get it—we’re obsessed with our fur babies, too.
A report from Rover, called “The Real Power of Dog Love,” explores the loving relationship modern dog owners have with their pets. The report found that devoted dog people gaze lovingly into their dog’s eyes (67%), cuddle their dog more often than their partner (47%), and would even consider ending a relationship if their partner didn’t like dogs or was severely allergic (53%).
Scientific research also indicates that dog love isn’t one-sided, and dogs are equally as eager to bond and connect with humans. According to Phil Tedeschi, professor and researcher on the human-animal bond at the University of Denver, and a member of Rover’s Dog People Panel, our loyal canine companions are constantly working to understand humans and fit into our lives.
Tedeschi notes that dogs watch and wait for moments to gaze and connect with humans. This eye contact stimulates bonding and the ‘love’ hormone, oxytocin, which has human health benefits such as lowering blood pressure and reducing stress, anxiety and depression.
