I am not one of  those "Dog Parents" , but  I categorize myself as a Dog lover, and I'm pretty certain that having this furry little fella as your pet would make you happier in life. And for those who plans to add one into your family, especially if you live alone, these reasons might please you. The first reason is that, just like felines, dogs can increase your mood quite easily. Spending time with your dog for only 10 to 30 minutes can make your mood lighter and you'll feel more relaxed, especially when you're scared, hugging your dog will make you less scared. the second reason is that it would make your lifestyle healthier, if you become a Dog parent, your responsibilities is of course to take your dog out for a walk, or even play with him/her, so it only make sense that it would make you more active than before. And lastly, but not last is that having a dog is basically adding a new best friend, or even new family to your household, dog is an intelligent animal with a strong sense of smell, hearing, and sight, dogs can sense your body language, feelings and emotion and that way it can form an unbreakable bond. And thus, even if you have a Ruff day, when you get home, and your dogs welcome you home, I think it would make your day less Ruff. Basically, if you have a dog, you wont get a rough day.
