There are many benefits to owning a pet, and one of the most important is that they are good for your health. And that goes well beyond the benefits of walking five miles a day and getting fitter; there are many more benefits than just muscle toning.
Think about it: Dogs have a wonderful habit of spreading their love and affection. So is it this behavior that keeps us healthy? One group that specializes in the “human-animal health connection” and has found many instances of dogs improving the well-being of people. This ranges from pet dogs to therapy dogs, all helping to improve health by just being around.
My name is Waffles and I am a spayed female, tan and white Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix.
The shelter thinks I am about 2 years and 6 months old..
I have been at the shelter since Apr 21, 2015.
I’m a two year old spayed female. I love to cuddle and play with people, cats, and some other dogs. Here at the shelter I have been good with puppies, and most other dogs, playing all day in the outside pens. I have high energy, and am very smiley and goofy. Come on in and let me charm your socks off!
