[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are in the jerky teen years. My dog follows me around abd is happy when I come in a room. It helps with balance![/quote]\ Same. What's wrong with loving a furrry creature that things I'm the best person on the planet. Not only that, but he can make my grumpy teens smile, even first thing in the morning. People use all sorts of strategies to fill emotional needs, some of them healthy some not. Dog ownership is shown to improve health. One of the best benefits of having a dog in the house is that they remind you to live in the moment. They aren't running through their mental to do list or worrying about college admissions. They exist, in the moment, whether they are snuggling, or running, or barking. It's a beautiful thing.[/quote]
