UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

These furry friends can also help enhance your social skills and reduce your risk of heart attack.

Pet ownership for health & unconditional love

Dr. Michele Burklund September 5, 2013

What is one of the best things for your soul and your health?  

A furry best friend of course!

I have been so lucky to have a wonderful furry companion named Elvis, he has put up with my crazy schedule through medical school and has been a great support.

Pet “ownership” has many proven health benefits including an improvement in physical, mental, and emotional well being.  

These furry friends can also help enhance your social skills and reduce your risk of heart attack.  

The unconditional love of pets helps to improve your mood and gets  you outdoors to exercise more.  If your lifestyle has room for a furry companion go ahead and make a new best friend!
