It is no secret that we love our children and would do anything for them. However, recent research has shown there are interesting levels of neuro-hormones like oxytocin, which is involved in pair-bonding, and in some cases it has skewed in our dog’s favor!

While we would never assume to tell you that you really love pup more than your child it is interesting to note that there are nearly as many wardrobe changes and toys out there in retail stores for “Rover” as there are for children!

Doggy retailers and manufacturers are definitely not going out of business, so we can safely conclude that people are buying the merchandise!

We urge you to turn the page and read up on a study that compares the way women react to their dogs vs. their children. You may learn something about yourself – and woman in general – that you never knew before!
