1. Eye Contact 👀
Believe it or not, one of the ways that we know dogs are capable of loving their human companions is through heightened oxytocin levels. Many scientific studies have found that one way this oxytocin (the ‘love hormone’ is released in dogs is through deep and meaningful eye contact.
Without being able to speak the same language, eye contact is an important way for dogs to communicate with us, and only through regularly gazing in your eyes can a meaningful relationship be developed.
For this reason, eye contact is one of the most telling signs your dog trusts you.Â
