Dogs are a mood booster.

Very few of us, if any, have not heard that a “dog is a man’s best friend.”  They can also be a woman’s or a child’s best friend, as well. Historically, dogs have been great companions.  Research has shown that it only takes a mere 15-20 minutes with your pet to feel more relaxed and calm (per Web, MD).  Playing with theirs dogs can raise the level of children’s of dopamine and serotonin, which are neurotransmitters in the brain that are associated with pleasure and tranquility. Also, when children reach out and pet or hug their dog, they are giving of themselves and soon feel better. Why pay for tranquilizers?  Besides, who wants to put children on drugs any way?
