As dog owners we know the benefits that being a dog owner can bring us. Here are some reasons if you find yourself having to try and explain just how and why dogs have earned their right at our side.
1) Having a dog is good for your health. Dog owner tend to have lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Dog owners tended to generally be in better health than the average person.
2) Dog owners tend to have fewer minor allments and serious medical problems. Also dog can aid recovery from serious illnesses such as heart attacks. And it has now well been proven that dog can spot on coming illness like cancer or an impending seizure. We haven't even begun to scrash the surface of how much dogs can still do to aid human health.
3) Have a pet also help children develop better social skills.

4) Dog also help us cope with stress. A five year study of 600 children aged 3-18 years showed how children with pets who suffer fromn learning diffculties or come form home where parents have split up, are better to dill with stress than thous who don't have access to the compaionship of a pet.
