What the Golden Retriever does with Dad’s clothes every morning warms hearts

One shared post on TikTok In December, under the username @becky_sew, the puppy, Mabel, can be seen walking into the living room with one of her dad’s shirts in her mouth, before sitting on the floor and laying on it so she can feel close to him .

“Every morning Mabel, my 6-year-old golden girl, comes down to get one of my husband’s clothes to sleep in for the day,” reads the text clip for the stopover, as the poster shows her call a good girl, encouraging her lovely behavior.

“My heart can’t stand the sweetness of this dog. She does this every morning. My husband will leave her something to take,” the caption reads.

While dogs rely on us for food and shelter, science has proof that they love us too as much as we love them.

The American Kennel Club explains that puppies really do feel a certain way for us, citing a scientific study that found that when dogs smell their owners or the people they love the most, an area of ​​their brain known as by the “reward center”.

And they experiment higher levels of oxytocinalso known as the love hormone when their humans are around.

Most dogs also have a favorite person, which is not always the owner or primary caretaker. Newsweek ask the vets beforehand what makes dogs choose one person over another and the answer is not surprising.

Your puppy’s bond with you is influenced by a number of factors, including the amount of time spent together, the grooming provided, and the overall relationship built over time.

Signs that you are their favorite include wagging his tail when he sees you, looking for any excuse to be around you, being affectionate and relaxed around you, rubbing his face against you and maintaining eye contact.
