Why do dogs like their owners?

There is a hormone in the body of living things: oxytocin. Oxytocin can bring people closer to each other and is vividly called the "love hormone." It makes people behave more intimately, and low oxytocin levels are linked to mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety and autism. When the owner and the dog look at each other, oxytocin will increase in both bodies, so the dog and the owner will like each other more and more.

Are dogs’ emotions consistent with people’s?

Dog emotions can be difficult for humans to understand because we don’t have a common language to communicate. When humans express their love for something, they use verbal praise and praise; when they express regret about something, they use verbal comfort and encouragement. Although we cannot understand the language of dogs for the time being, some scientists have used MRI scans of dog brains and found that when they receive positive stimulation, dogs' brains have similar parts to humans. Even though dogs' language is different from ours, they have the same reactions as humans.
