The dog is man's best friend

We've all heard the phrase, "The dog is man's best friend," but have you ever thought, "Why?" What events have happened in history that we have come to this conclusion, that those of us who have a dog all know that if we feel bad and he feels bad if we are happy and they are. The dog is the only animal that loves us more than itself. We are in first place with them.
There are many theories as to why this is so, the scientist says:

"Researcher Miho Nagasawa of Azabu University - Japan - and his colleagues have noticed that today's dogs and their owners inevitably secrete oxytocin when they meet. Remarkably, dogs that look at their owners with long eyes secrete most oxytocin - just like humans.

The phenomenon also explains why some masters prefer to talk to their quadrupeds like children, especially when they do nazdravanii. Oxytocin demonstrates that old hormones are not radically reinvented, but take on new dimensions, they use what they have at hand to evolve. When humans and wolves began this journey together, their brains changed forever, the researchers say.

The presence of the dog has direct benefits on human behavior, reducing anxiety and aggressive starts. According to the latest studies, dogs are able to feel the chemical changes in the human body. Researchers relied on this when they began training dogs for various conditions such as diabetes, autism, epilepsy, narcolepsy.

Patients with diabetes who are at risk for diabetic coma are advised to have a dog around them trained to feel blood sugar fluctuations. When it drops considerably, the dog alerts its owner either by barking or hitting it with its snout or staring at it. The patient will thus know that he must take emergency treatment to avoid falling into a diabetic coma.

The same thing happens with patients with epilepsy or narcolepsy, a chronic disease that manifests itself during the day, the patient falling asleep suddenly, without any warning. Dogs are specially trained to feel the chemical changes before a seizure whether it is epilepsy or narcolepsy. And in the case of children with autism, the presence of a dog is beneficial, helping little patients to relate better to the environment.

The guide dog has the duty to help his master to move from one place to another, safely and as efficiently as possible. The disabled person no longer has to walk with small steps, hitting every potential obstacle with the cane. The dog can quickly calculate and travel a certain route that does not seem to have impediments. For example: from one corner of the street to another the guide dog notices if the road is free and can sustain a higher and uninterrupted tempo of movement.

In the man-dog team, the dog does not lead the owner, and the man does not completely control the dog; the two work together to travel safely. The dog does not know the destination so he must follow the owner's instructions about the direction he must follow. Instead, the handler cannot see the obstacles on the route, so it is the dog's duty to notice and manage them. Each half of this couple relies on each other to fulfill their mission. So in conclusion, the dog is man's best friend.
