I used to have a dog named Norman, he was a golden retriever. If you met him you would instantly know he loved you and wanted to be your best friend. Norman was one in a million.

Many people look at pets as another chore, when they are actually very good at being a best friend, confidante that understands all of life’s problems, and the best motivation in keeping healthy. Pets can also keep children active, promote responsibility, and help with socialization problems that are becoming more prominent in today’s society. With a pet adoption a person gains more than just an animal, the community at large is also helped by opening another kennel in the animal shelter for another loving animal. Becoming active in the community is just that simple, but there are other ways to promote animal welfare and overpopulation that affects so many areas of the world. Research has shown that adopting a pet is a great way to improve mental and physical health, promote family values, and become active in the community by rescuing an unwanted or stray animal.

To me, Dragon, Pepper, and Chi are not only great companions, they are also healers for our ill health. As I began conducting this research, whether or not companion dogs affect our health, I was astounded by the research studies I have found: it is not a myth that companion dogs affect and improve our health.
In this essay, I will look at some of the ways that dogs are used to assist humans other than being a simple family pet. After reading “The Dog Delusion” by April Pedersen, I chose to show how Service dogs could be a wonderful asset for someone with a disability, but it is always good to go into anything with your eyes open from the beginning. Many factors come into play with the use of a service dog. These dogs can be a lifesaving partner, but they come with needs and can change every aspect of your life.

This adds to their purported aloofness. Dogs have been considered to be “man’s best friend” for ages. This branding comes from a dog’s loyal and protective nature.

They are very loving creatures, and they enjoy the company of their humans and other dogs. Whether a Greyhound enjoys the company of other small animals or cats depends on the individual dog's personality. Greyhounds will typically chase small animals; those lacking a high 'prey drive' will be able to coexist happily with toy dog breeds and/or cats.
