1. Pets are also a great motivator for
people. Dogs especially are great at encouraging
owners to get exercise, and this can be beneficial
for those suffering from depression. Pets can also
have calming effects on their owner. Just
by stroking, sitting next to or playing with a pet
can gives owning a chance to relax and calm their
minds. Caring for a pet also gives your day purpose
and reward, and a sense of achievement. It
also helps you feel valuable and needed.
Walking a dog often leads to conversations with
other dog owners and this helps owners to stay
socially connected and less withdrawn. People who
have more social relationships and friendships tend
to be mentally healthier.
A pet is great companion. They give owners
company, a sense of security and someone to
share the routine of the day with. Pets can be
especially valuable company for those in later life
and living alone.
Scientists are now digging up evidence that
animals can also help improve mental health, even
for people with challenging disorders. Though the
studies are small, the benefits are impressive
enough that clinical settings are opening their doors
to animal-assisted interventions--pet therapy, in
other words--used alongside conventional medicine.
