Dogs relax us and make us feel good

Dogs touch a part of your heart soul that humans can’t even come close to. when your dog loves you, its unconditional. and when eveything in your world goes pear shaped, how you could get through it with out them by your side? they were created to be our companion our stability when we need it most. even when your angery with your dog, they won’t get defensive and pull away. they’ll lick your face and love you even more, you just can’t stay mad…
Dogs along with all animals bring JOY. and the world needs them. God knows we do.

Well I am a dog owner. I have four beautiful Shih Tzu pups!

Some of the benefits would be:

I get plenty of exercise by chasing them around the house when it is bath time!

Due to the cost related to having dogs (vet bills, food, toys, etc.) I never have enough money left over to buy garbage food for me and my children, so we have no fear of obesity.

I never have to worry about being lazy, because they wake me up every morning by 6am to go potty and they WON’T allow me to over sleep!

And finally, they make me smile when I am sad! They snuggle in next to me when I am laughing my fool head off! And I wouldn’t change owning them for the world! (Now, my kids, that is another story…….)

lowered blood pressure

Mental Heath, they are great companions and loyal friends many people feel happy around their pet. They are great for helping people not feel lonely or depressed. People shouldn’t tell other people how to spend their money. There are so many rewards to owning a pet far more then the cost….I have two dogs and two cats and they are all priceless with what they give to me…unconditional love!

i know personally that owning my dog has done a lot for me. it filled a void that no else could for many reasons. such as he is always there to greet me at the door when i come home. some how he seems to able to calm me when I’m up set. this might sound wried to some people but he has never told a soul about what i talked to him about and he has never judged me. he makes me get out of the house witch can sometime be hard for me to do. he makes me feel safe when husband works nights as well. he great as foot warmer too. having a dog is much like having a child that never talks back loves you no matter what much like a new born. all that he wants is be loved and give love.

petting a dog can lower your blood pressure and resting heart rate. also, if you are active with you dog you get excerise by providing exercise for your dog. plus, if you like dogs i think having a happy and healthy dog makes you happy which helps promote better mental health which turn makes your overall health that much better.

First I am not sure why some people have to speak out about every little thing. If dogs make people happy why should others question it? Sure charities need help but dogs also need homes and people need companionship. Everyone knows that dogs can lower people’s blood pressure and also help to get them out and exercising (as long as they walk their dogs). Dogs also reduce the stress in the house, they are always happy to see you and greet you with love. Who couldn’t use some of that affection? Other dogs are used in hospitals, nursing homes, etc. for therapy. They bring joy to sick people who would otherwise be alone. There are also working dogs who help those in need (blind, etc) or work on a farm herding sheep. There are a million benefits to owning a dog. I don’t stick my nose into other people’s business, if people are happy with their dogs just be happy for them. That’s what I think! = )

yes, it has been proven that people who have a good LOVING relationship with their dog have lower blood pressure and this loving relationship also reduces stress. we have dogs and we wouldn’t take anything in the world for our little fluffers. they’re always entertaining us or snuggling with us.. they make our lives calmer and just give us an overall feeling of happiness. until one has loved a dog, their soul remains unawakened! our dogs have really helped our son as well, whereas he use to have some anger issues..now that he has his dogs, it’s like all that went away. the health benefits are deeper than many of us even realize. I LOVE MY DOGS!

Having pets can really make a person feel joy, which we all know is healthy! Studies have also shown that it can help to lower your blood pressure (unless you have my heathens… lol!). And for me it helps me to reduce my stress level when I come home and have all these guys looking at me so lovingly. Having pets is a great growing and learning experience, it teaches responsibility, unconditional love, and patience.
