LOVE SOMETHING FURRY

-

Nothing compares to the unconditio­nal love of a pet. Animals can help lower stress, reduce blood pressure, increase social contact and boost physical activity. Importantl­y, for older folks, pets can be a great source of comfort and companions­hip.

TIP Poodles are perfect. They’re super smart, don’t shed and love you like there’s no tomorrow. (Biased opinion? Never!)
