Dogs are usually cheerful, happy going and they love you unconditionally. Who doesn’t need love, right? Anyway, in case you need more convincing, here are six reasons why everyone should own dog.

They are loyal and good for security

Dogs are perhaps the most loyal animal of them all, which explains why they are so great for security. With their enhanced sense of smell and hearing, even the police use dogs for their special and elite units.

 

They have a good impact on your health

Look at that wagging tail! Many studies have shown that owning a dog has positive effects on your health. As they help in reducing depression and stress, dogs become an instant mood cheerer.

 

They can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases

Studies have shown that people who own a dog have comparatively lower blood pressure than those who don’t. Lower blood pressure in turns helps lower the risk of heart diseases in you.

 

They make us active

We all know how energetic and playful dogs are. So, playing with them and walking them every day (which is necessary) makes us a more active and healthier person.

 

They will always greet you when you get back

You will never come back to an empty house as dogs always cheerfully welcome their owner. So, the first thing you see after a long and tiring day is a loving and joyful face.

 

You are doing a good deed

Unfortunately, many of these lovely animals are left astray on the street where they don’t get shelter, food or love that they require. So, one should choose to adopt a dog from the shelters.
