Dog and cat owners know how much joy their pets bring to their lives. After a hard day at work, it's nice to go home to a pet eagerly awaiting your arrival.

Once you do that tail of theirs goes nuts and wags like crazy and they can't wait until you put your stuff down and give them some attention because they have a lot of stored-up love to give you.

Having a companion like a dog can be very therapeutic for many people and someone to talk to who won't go and tell all of their secrets to anyone else.

If you're currently without a pet, the Humane Society's Pets Fur People has many animals just waiting to be adopted and waiting to give you a lot of unconditional love.
