Home is Where Your Pet is
Nothing beats coming home to a loyal companion. Studies have proven that roughly 68% of U.S households own pets, and that having one can make you happier and healthier. From decreasing stress to increasing daily exercise, pets have the ability to add on years to your life. Plus, few health-improving activities are as nice to snuggle up to on the sofa!
The Scooby to your Shaggy: Pets can be physically and mentally beneficial for all members of the family - from children to seniors. For the littles, having a family pet has been proven to improve social skills, teach responsibility, increase outdoor play, and even reduce their risk of developing common allergies.
For adults, the benefits of a fuzzy friend often make any extra clean up entirely worth it. Pets can reduce loneliness, keep you fit, and can even improve your mood. It’s hard to scowl when your pup gives you a big smile and a tail wag.
Did you know that over time pets help to lower cholesterol, fight depression, and help fight against heart disease and strokes? That’s why pets are particularly perfect for seniors. Here's some of the science behind this: interacting with your pet produces a chemical reaction in your brain that lowers cortisol and releases serotonin (the feel-good hormone), ultimately resulting in a decrease in stress levels, heart rate, and blood pressure.
Happy, healthy, and more social. We owe our little friends SO much!
Tehaleh thinks paw-sitively about your pet

Who let the dogs out? Tehaleh did! Looking to have a dog-gone good time? Well, look no further. The Hounds Hollow dog park has what your fur-baby is looking for. This park is fully fenced and your pup can run off-leash in the open field, wander the pooch-friendly trails or run the agility course.
