Having pets can have a lot of benefits, and one of the biggest is often unexpected.

Pets can help families to grow stronger and closer.

A pet is often the center of focus for activities that families do together.

All the family can share a Sunday morning walk with the dog.

Everyone shares in grooming and feeding him, or play with him.

Spending time watching the pet chasing a fly or his own tail is a good way of having a rest from the hectic pace of modern life.
