When reading a story with animals as the main focus, human characteristics are either found in or projected onto the characters in order to make them relatable. “Man’s best friend” -a.k.a. dogs- are relatively easy to relate to for this reason; people see their dogs as one of the family, talking to and sometimes

Main point one: Companionship is important to have in your life, even if it comes from your dog. When life gets stressful it’s nice to have a companion to play with, take a walk with or even cheer you up. Companionship can be hard to come by with humans sometimes and easily found in dogs. While their personalities vary according to the breed of the dog, one characteristic remains the same, their loyalty. Dogs make great listeners, maybe because they can’t tell you to stop talking, but either way they seem to listen with interest. Many dog owners find themselves telling dogs things they can't seem to tell anyone else. This is what makes dogs good therapeutic animals. A dog is an especially good animal for someone who lives alone or suffers from depression. Having a dog present can also help people who have suffered a tragic loss in their life and need the company of another life for comfort.

The author states “ People wouldn’t have become who we are today if we hadn’t co-evolved with dogs (Grandin, pg 153, pp 1).” Without dogs in our life people wouldn’t have become who we are today. This has impact the mistress's life because her dog is their to love and care for her.

Animals are protective, understanding, and very helpful.

Animals help humans in our lives for sharing their features. Every new experience can make a person change; sometimes the changes are positive, and other times it is negative. Either way, here is no avoiding change. Animals are kind, helpful, and playful.

“Animals kept me going,” Temple Grandin once said. This quote means that people have a strong need for animals in their life for the things animals provide.

Some people may believe that having a dog doesn't have any benefits because they believe that they are hard to take care of and they are “Just an animal”.Though it is true that dogs can be difficult to take care of and are expensive, they are not “just an animal”.

Our dogs are our fur babies and they need just as much care as a

pets can make you happy when you are sad or be with you in the worst times.

Animals and people can help each other by being resources for each other. For instance, dogs helped kids improve their reading skills, a dog patiently waited for his owner to get off of a train, and another dog saved a woman and her baby from getting hit by a car. To some people, some animals are a nuance. Others mean the world to them. But everyone has their own opinions.

“A dog is a man’s best friend” goes much deeper than the phrase might initially imply. Recently many medical journals have begun to identify with the many and varied benefits of pet ownership. Men have always relied upon animals for work, transportation, and survival. As times have changed, man has begun to appreciate a different bond with animals.
