And there's no time better than now so let's have a look at scientific evidence that touts the perks of owning a dog. 1. Staying Active: Dogs encourage us to move out from our homes for strolling, fetching and moving around which in turn induces our physical and mental health. 2. Boost Your Mood: Just spending 15 to 30 minutes with your pooch increases chemical activities in your brain associated with contentment, joy, and tranquility. 3. Relieve Stress: Research has shown that dog owners are prone to be more immune to stress and the benefits of having a dog outweigh the strain of caring. 4. Protect from Heart Disease: Comparatively, dog owners have been found to have lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol and experience a fewer heart attack than to those who do not own any pet. 5. Detecting Cancer: Dog owners have reported that their dogs had the intuition of detecting cancerous cells as they sniffed, licked, nudged or at times even tore those parts.
