Dogs offer more than just companionship. There are umpteen number of benefits if you own a dog. Here go some of the advantages:

You will exercise more Owning a dog can motivate you to exercise every day. If you are feeling lethargic to do your workout, one look at your dog standing by the door waiting to go for a walk can give you the push you need to get out there. Taking your dog for a 30 minute walk every day can greatly improve your health.

You will feel less stressed There have been lots of studies that have shown how dogs decrease stress levels. Petting your dog, playing with your dog, and simply watching your dog can reduce your stress each day. Research shows that dog ownership reduces stress hormones and the effects usually outweigh the stress caused by caring for a dog.

Your social life will improve You can make many friends when you take your dog out for a walk. Going to the dog park or taking your dogs to run errands can also lead to strangers striking up conversations with you about your dog.

Your heart will be healthier Studies have shown that petting a dog lowers a person's heart rate. In fact, some research has shown that dog owners are much more likely to survive a heart attack compared to non-dog owners. Male pet owners in particular tend to experience a reduced rate of heart disease.

You are less likely to feel depressed The benefits of dog ownership extend to your mental health as well. Caring for a dog helps relieve symptoms of depression and encourages people to be more positive.

You will feel safer Just knowing that you've got a dog who can use its keen sense of hearing to detect anyone prowling around can help increase your sense of security, which is good for both your mental and physical health.
