Anyone who has ever owned a dog knows they have the capacity for the same kind of unconditional love that exists between humans and their children.
The gentle nudge of a wet nose or a lick on the hand when we’re feeling down or the dash to the door to greet us is demonstrative of the strength of the human–canine bond. Studies have also shown that looking a dog in the eyes can boost levels of the hormone oxytocin - aka the "cuddle hormone," in both the owner and the dog.
Cats, although independent by nature, possess a similar capacity for love and nurture. Even a subtle change in our demeanour can be picked up by dogs or cats. Keeping your furry children happy and healthy during lockdown is as important as keeping your kids happy - so we have found an online selection of the best quality pet products at the most competitive prices.
