Dogs are social animals descended from wolves (so far so obvious). In the wild these animals live and hunt in packs and follow a certain hierarchy. The domestic dog views people as it's pack and often sees one member of the family as the pack leader (usually the one who does all the training etc). There is no one chemical involved in this behaviour but a complex highly evolved brain and a set of instinctive processes. Provided you train your dog properly and it sees you as the leader he will obey and be faithful. As for cats, very few cats are social in the wild (lions being the obvious exception) and so the same kind of response don't hold plus they are generally considered less intellgent and more difficult to train as they have a smaller brain.

Surely you are thinking of the endorphins released by the brain - this is the nice feeling you get when you are rewarded for being a good doggy.
