Pet Ownership Improves Well-Being

That article is completely void of any real information.

I own 2 dogs, and grew up on a farm... But I am still Un-Fit (at least according to the Misses), occasionally become lonely, and at times have little self esteem.

Maybe I should collect cats.

She seems happy, full of self esteem, physically fit, and not the least bit lonely.

All-in-all I absolutely love my pup's.

This is a pretty well established fact that pets (or any company) are good for your health. Why then can landlords get away with banning tenants from owning pets, are they not interfeering with my well being? Landlords cannot discriminate against renters with children and my experience says children do much more damage to the premises than my cats have ever done.

RV ...... imagine the bad shape you would be in without the pets.

Perhaps the misses is in such great shape because she considers you a pet?

You might be onto something...
