Numerous studies by medical professionals have shown that there are many benefits to our well being by having a dog in your life. Blood pressure and cholesterol levels were found to be lower in dog owners. Just the act of petting a dog can greatly relax a patient and bring about therapeutic results. Petting a dog also helps to bring about better emotional health as well. Studies have also proven that dogs aid in a patient’s recovery from illness and can induce an overall quicker recovery time.
Just one more reason for us to love our dogs!
