Benefits Of Having A Dog by Prodeegee(m): 5:36pm On Oct 18, 2015
Having a dog comes with alot of benefits. From Health to Social and many other parts of your life.

Dogs are lovely animals, they love endlessly and selflessly and give a selfless service to their owner and the home.

I will further break down the benefits of owning a dog into categories.

Health Benefits
Social Benefits
Home Benefits
Security Benefits


HEALTH AND SOCIAL BENEFITS

Regularly walking you dogs helps you keep fit, as well as your dogs. So you can make your dog your fitness trainer. smiley
Patting a dog Lowers your blood pressure.

Improves loneliness and helps you recover from trauma. for those who live a lonely life, getting a dog just might help you.
Children with dogs are more courageous. From experience children with dogs are more brighter and more social. they also learn faster and aren't scared.

Having a dog Lowers the chances of falling sick and also increases the chances of recovering from illness.

Increases your level of serotonin and dopamine , making you feel good and calm.

Assistance dogs like 'seeing eye dogs' and 'hearing dogs' help those who have mantal or physical disabilities.

Owning a pet can teach a child about the responsibilities of life and mutual trust. By feeding and exercising a pet, children can also develop an understanding of daily care. Children with learning difficulties can also benefit from interaction with pets.

Dogs can raise your spirit and sense of well-being.


HOME AND SECURITY BENEFITS

Burglars are scared off by your barking dog/s. Using your dog as your home security system saves money and prevents burglary.

Dogs can differentiate between the sound of their owner's car engine and other vehicles passing by.

Dog can be trained for personal/home protection. This sometimes is more reliable than human securities.

A dog will do anything to protect its owner, even if it would cost its life.

Now aren't dogs just wonderful?

Don't be deceived, Alsatian can be friendly but Rottweilers are not friendly at all. If you think I'm lying, visit my brother's house.
