Dogs and the "feel good" hormone

[quavec]

Saw this on MSNBC.com and thought I'd share it with all of you. What they say is so true. When any of us feel down, we look at Cricket and 'poof' we can't help but laugh! He is our 'happy' pill!:raz:

Very interesting... now we know why we feel so good with puppy love!

Well, duh! :huh: Those of us with puppers know the calming effect they have on us---except when they eat our carpet or get into chicken carcasses! But it's good to know that people are taking the calming effect they have on us seriously, maybe that will lead to more rights and protection for our furkids.

Some of the other articles are really good, too.
