Why Adopt?

  • 🖤

    Studies show that spending time with dogs can lower cortisol (stress hormone) levels and increase serotonin and dopamine, helping to ease anxiety, depression, and daily stress.

  • 🖤

    Dog owners are more likely to meet daily physical activity goals. Regular walks and playtime improve cardiovascular health, mobility, and overall fitness.

  • 🖤

     Dogs are natural icebreakers! Whether it’s chatting with other dog owners at the park or joining pet-friendly events, having a dog often increases social interaction and community engagement.

  • 🖤

    The unconditional love and loyalty of a dog offers constant emotional support, helping reduce feelings of loneliness and enhancing overall well-being.
