Our canine companions always brighten up our day, whether it’s a bad day at work or an exhausting midterms exam. Every dog has his own unique personality that makes him lovable. He can light up the room, take frowns away and make everyone, regardless of age, smile.

Well, aside from the fact that by just looking at the dog will make nearly everyone smile, their funny actions, the way they play, and the way they move, can surely make everyone happy. Dogs make people happier in four ways – they improve mood, provide companionship, help reduce stress and increase oxytocin levels, which is also called the love hormone.

Many studies have shown that having a dog or a pet could help lessen the symptoms of depression. Aside from that, it helps improve mood and maintain a positive, optimistic outlook on life. Having a dog can also help people who are down, who have learning disabilities and those who feel alone.
