Dogs are the most loyal creatures on 4 legs. Here are seven reasons why getting a dog is a wise decision.
They Help Us Sleep Better.
Pet parents of both dogs and cats participated in a recent survey, and those who have dogs that sleep in their beds with them reported fewer disturbances than those who have cats. Additionally, they claimed that spending the night in bed with their dog increased their sense of security and comfort. Whether or not they snore … well, thats another story.

Their Loyalty Knows No Bounds.
It’s understandable that the bond between pets and their owners is so strong given the long history of canine and human companionship. Dogs appear to do anything to be by our sides, ensure the safety of their owners, and even pay their respects after we are gone.
Dogs have been human companions since the beginning of civilization. Its thought that Paleolithic humans were the first to tame dogs from wild wolves some 15,000 years ago. Evidence of a childs footprints walking alongside a dogs paw prints appears in a cave in France, suggesting that bond may extend even farther back—closer to 30,000 years. Either way, the first wolf looked at Neolithic man thousands of years ago across the fire, and each realized they could benefit from one anothers presence (probably over food, if we had to guess). Though their relationship probably bordered on the wilder side of things, it was the beginning of a friendship that would continue to evolve over thousands of years as dogs were domesticated into the pets we know today.
