Well, that puts an end to all of the toy breeds, as they were all bred as
vanity dogs.
I would agree to that.
Sorry, I've never been a man of my word when it involves shutting up...
There are numerous studies that show that elderly people who keep dogs tend
to live longer and are able to stay in their own homes caring for themselves
longer if they have a dog around the house.
Apparently, having something around that needs your care and returns your
love keeps you motivated to continue caring for yourself.
There are many incidents of therapy dogs that have made some pretty
incredible breakthroughs with people who have been brain damaged, either
through injury or disease.
It seems that sometimes dogs can do what the best psychologists are unable
to do.
Most of these dogs are the toy breeds, simply because they are smaller and
easier to manage.
Food for thought....
