Study Highlights Health Benefits of Owning Dogs and Other Pets
By Amanda
“Pheeew, what a long day! I’m exhausted.” “I got home from one of the worst days at work today and am not in a good mood!” I unlock my front door, groceries spilling out of the bags as I am greeted by the warmest of touches. I look down by my side and find the cutest stare glancing back up at me. “That’s all it took.” My mood was instantly elevated – I felt relieved, energized and happy! I leaned down and scooped up my adorable furball and gave her a great big hug and kiss! “Coconutttttttt, I love you!”
And that’s the plain truth – pets make people happy. It has now even been scientifically proven that pets boost owners’ emotional and physical health. Our pets are a good source of social and emotional support for everyone; not only people facing health challenges.
Like humans, pets need the right nutrition and exercise to maintain optimum health. Pet owners and pets that play together stay healthy together! You’re eating and exercising right – so should your pet – a good start is natural organic pet food. Coconut really enjoys and benefits from EVO Dogs –

I am in total agreement with the above. Nothing is more fulfilling than coming home from a long days work and having Chichi look up at me super excited to see me! It is the best feeling in the world!
Having a dog has totally brightened up our household. There's constant energy and laughter all the time. We all look forward to coming home every day to our excited, tail-wagging bundle of joy!
Thanks for the comments! Pets truly are great! :)
Ah yes, "Pet Therapy". We may not realize this benefit, but I agree with the article and can say for sure that our dog provides the social and emotional support when needed.
Great article. I'm gone from home most of the week for work and I know our dog provides my wife a constant companion and feeling of safety and security. And I feel better knowing that she's not entirely alone. So, as is said, "happy wife - happy life" and our dog is a big part in making that happen.
@Jacques - Pets are truly there for us humans whether we realize it or not!
@mike - Thank you for your comment. So glad to hear that your dog is there to keep your wife company while you are away! :)
