They have long been known as man’s best friend: loyal companions that adore their owners.

But it’s not just an act to make sure they get fed – dogs really are capable of love, research has shown.

Scientists at the Claremont Graduate University in California found that domesticated animals release oxytocin in intimate situations, The Atlantic reported.

Known as the “love hormone”, it is the same chemical used to create close bonds between humans.

Professor Paul Zak and his lab carried out a number of experiments to measure the levels of oxytocin released when pets interacted with both other animals and humans.

It must have been a chocolate lab. The yellow ones are too hyper and would never have enough patience to finish a single experiment. Let alone a number of them.

My buddy's chocolate lab climbs into the toilet. It isn't because he's patient.

Here's a dog singing along with Sergio Leone's score to the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Jump to about 2:19 for the good stuff.
