Pets are Good for Your Health!

I think it is safe to say- puppies have the natural ability to cheer up just about any environment. Just look at that sweet face! 

 Believe it or not, having a pet companion can be good for your own health! According to the National Center for Health Research, "research studies have found that people who have a pet have healthier hearts, stay home sick less often, make fewer visits to the doctor, get more exercise, and are less depressed.  Pets may also have a significant impact on allergies, asthma, social support, and social interactions with other people."
