Pets Can Improve Your Mood: For those who love animals, it’s virtually impossible to stay in a bad mood when a pair of loving puppy eyes meets yours. Research supports the mood-enhancing benefits of pets.

Pets Control Blood Pressure Better Than Drugs: Yes, it’s true. While ACE inhibiting drugs can generally reduce blood pressure, they aren’t as effective on controlling spikes in blood pressure due to stress and tension as dogs are.

Pets Encourage You To Get Out And Exercise: Whether we walk our dogs because they need it, or are more likely to enjoy a walk when we have companionship, dog owners do than non-pet owners, at least if we live in an urban setting.

Pets Stave Off Loneliness and Provide Unconditional Love: Pets can be there for you in ways that people can’t. They can offer love and companionship, and can also enjoy comfortable silences, keep secrets and are excellent snugglers. And they could be the best antidote to loneliness.

THEY WERE SENT TO DESTROY HER...
Wow! That's a great title. Actually, the way I found my best friend was seeing her at the dog pound. I went their with my friend and we spotted her. I asked the lady about her, and the lady said that this dog was set to be destroyed tomorrow. Well after looking at her, I couldn't let that happen. I took her home a week later after they told me they had to keep her to spay her and such. My life has never been the same since then. She has caused me to bleed, get frustrated, get angry, be disappointed, and more... and I couldn't be happier. She really has changed my life and I'm glad she is with me.

WHAT ABOUT THE BREED...
Pit Bulls are great. They are major lovers and want to spend every single moment with you. The thing I like the most about them is that they have really tough skin so an accidental bump on the head doesn't send them whining into a corner... they just keep going. Their best playmates are other pits so keep that in mind. They also play really well with Dobermans and little kids. They love little kids, and lizards.
