Thanksgiving is a time to be thankful for the many blessings in your life. Here are five things that dog owners can be thankful for this Thanksgiving.
1.The Affection Of A Good Dog
Any positive affectionate behavior between you and your dog is good for your health. It raises both, your endorphin and dopamine levels, which is a good thing. Just looking into your dogs eyes has proven to provide an emotional boost according to Miho Nagasaki of Azabu University in Japan.
2. If You Drop It, They Will Eat It
If you are a dog owner, you know that dogs are great vacuum cleaners and if you don’t mind them hanging out around you while you eat, there’s no need to worry about crumbs that may fall from your plate.
3. Your Dog Will Keep You Moving
Are you looking to shed some pounds to make room for Turkey and all of the sides or are you just looking to spend more time outdoors? No! Because you have a dog!
There will be no more dates with the couch and Netflix with that sad little face staring you down until you grab the leash and say that magical phrase, “Do you want to go for a walk?”
4. You Never Have To Worry About Looking Crazy
As a pet owner, we all talk to our dogs. In fact, they can be great listeners and help us figure out the solution to any problem. All of this talking can be great for your mental health. More importantly, your dog will never tell anyone!
5. Your Dog Makes You More Attractive
It isn’t just that you’re physically fit from all of those walks, having a dog is scientifically proven to make you more attractive when it comes to finding a relationship, this according to Dog’s Trust, the UK’s largest dog welfare charity. Maybe you have man’s / woman’s best friend to thank for that hot guy that just asked you out.
