There’s a reason a dog is a man’s best friend. One purpose is because a dog can help cheer you up better than you can imagine. You don’t need much science to figure that out, but there is tons of research that proves pets help you live a happier life.
A study from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) called Friends with benefits: on the positive consequences of pet ownership, shared some helpful information. They found that people who owned pets had greater self-esteem, exercised more, and had greater conscientiousness than people who didn’t have pets.
