WHEN YOUR VALENTINE IS A DOG

This article at Slate Magazine raises a really good question:

Do you love your dog too much? – By Jon Katz – Slate Magazine.

Pets can get us through many a rough patch in life. They make great companions and it’s even been proven that having access to a pet can extend your lifespan (that’s why many nursing homes and hospitals have visiting pet programs).

A pet will give you unconditional love and it won’t talk back or express negative feelings. Loving a person means you’re going to get feedback, and not all of it will be what you want to hear. Thank you, Jon Katz for bringing this common situation to our attention in your fun article!
