Does your dog actually love you, or just the person who fills the bowl? Scientists at Emory University put 12 awake, unsedated dogs in an MRI and let them sniff five scents. Only one lit up the brain's reward centre, and it wasn't food, another dog, or their own smell. In this video you'll see what that scent was, why a 1998 test built for toddlers changed how we understand dogs, how a shared gaze raises the bonding hormone oxytocin in both of you, and why dogs give up on a puzzle faster when you leave the room. We also give the sceptics their say, and show where the science stops.
