In our
hearts we know that pets enrich our lives, and in recent years scientific
studies have begun to pin point the ways that companion animals improve
our minds and our bodies. Beyond walks and fetch, beyond lazy days in the
sun and eager faces at the end of the day, pets provide documented health
benefits. It has been reported that companion animals have a more consistent
behavior compared to our human companions and that they offer unconditional
affection. The health effect: lower blood pressure, heart rate, and anxiety level
for pet owners.
