we don't have any pet at the house,i've noticed my daughter that whenever she sees animal outside i see joy in her face that's why we are considering to buy a dog.since we are thinking that dogs are easy to take care of, to feed, to bath, etc.and they i know that they are very attached to those who takes care of them.do you have any thing else to add up for me to convince that dog is best pet for my daughter..she's only 9mos old.

Why I love my dog.... Let's see where to start. First of all I rescued her from a shelter (I totally recommend this route, there are plenty of wonderful animals in need of a good home). She was left in some guys apartment for a month with no food before the landlord checked it out and called the shelter. She was terribly skinny and just wanted a good home! I think because of her background it made her such a good dog. SHe always wants to be around someone. When you get home from work no matter how bad your day is she's there by the door to greet me. No matter what mood I'm in or if I yelled at her 20 minutes earlier she is always happy to see me. Dogs can sense your moods. She'll bring me a ball to play when she knows I'm energetic or will sit on the couch with her head in my lap when I'm sad. Plus she has a lot of energy so she has to be walked for at least 30 minutes every day so she keeps me in shape! Studies have shown that having an animal lowers your blood pressure and makes you live longer. I totally beleive it. My dog is always here for me, unconditionally. How many people in your life can you attribute that to?
