Dogs give unconditional love and we all need love. They also need caring and give those who have no other reason to get out of bed in the morning, a good reason.
I've read many an article describing how dogs were used in hospitals, boosting healing rates in both the young and the old.
We've thought about raising a service dog but we just can't bear the thought of having to part with a dog. My hat is off to those who can. It must be as difficult as it is rewarding.
