Summary:

Dogs have been domesticated for longer than any other animal on the planet and humans have developed a unique relationship with their furry friends. We treat our pets like a part of the family, often like children - our attitude controlled by the powerful hormone Oxytocin, the same hormone responsible for bonding mothers to their babies. But new research in canine recognition is revealing that dogs think like human infants too. So do they have emotions like we do? And how did the canine-human relationship develop? Are we more like our pets than we ever realised? Horizon explores the science behind the unique relationship between man and canine.
