Oxytocin, mofos!



"Japanese researchers found that dogs who trained a long gaze on their owners had elevated levels of oxytocin, a hormone produced in the brain that is associated with nurturing and attachment, similar to the feel-good feedback that bolsters bonding between parent and child. After receiving those long gazes, the owners’ levels of oxytocin increased, too."

I'm an engineer and I'm okay, I sleep all night and I work all day. I am a passionate, creative individual who thinks outside the box in response to paradigm shifts when my cheese is moved. I expand to six times my normal size when placed in water. Mostly harmless.
