They give us humans extra longevity.
I have long followed Tony and his blog One Regular Guy Writing About Food, Exercise and Living Past 100. Not only because he writes so well but also because he and I are in the same camp age wise (OK, Tony is just a tad older.)
So when this post came along I just had to share it with you because we know about dogs and the great things that they do for us.

22 Ways Dogs Make Humans Better
By Tony,
As a dog lover and fitness enthusiast, I had to love this poster and share it with you.
Regular readers know that my dog Gabi has been my companion for 14 years. She is my first dog in over 50 years. You can read the peculiar story of how I came to own her in this post: Anatomy of an Act of Kindness.
In case some of these benefits seem nebulous, check out my post What is the Value of Hugging? and also 10 Reasons Why Oxytocin Is The Most Amazing Molecule In The World for some documentation.

I hope you can read it.
If you have any problems let me know and I will try and find a clearer version.
Meantime, you all stay fit and healthy with your dogs!
All of this is true. Mags is my confidant. She keeps me calm & active. I am truly honored to be her human.
