There
have been times in my life when my dog has been my friend and
only companion. At least, that’s the way I have felt. Even family
and friends will never understand you as well as your dog do. I
don’t think I can scientifically prove this. All I have is my
life’s experiences. However, researchers have found out
interesting things about how pets
help
you have a better quality of life. For example, spending time
with your pet lowers the level of hormones linked to stress.
Also, you get to exercise more, and petting your dog lowers your
blood pressure. It also lowers cholesterol and triglycerides.
It’s proven that pet owners have fewer heart attacks than those
who don’t own a pet. Also, patients that own pets will recover
faster than those who don’t. People who were raised with pets at
home have a stronger immune system. Kids with ADHD will benefit
greatly from a canine companion. Dogs
are
the best companions you’ll ever have. I forgot to mention the
‘guide dogs.’ I have seen a few of those around. It’s so
comforting seeing such small creatures have such a big heart. In
my opinion, dogs are the earthly dolphins. They are our angels. I
guess if you are reading this blog you already own a dog so you
know what I’m talking about. It’s good sharing our experiences,
from dog owner to dog owner…
