People who own pets often remark on what good company they are and what fun they have together. Pet experts and researchers identify many other additional benefits that come with pet ownership or interaction. In addition to those mentioned thus far, pets ease stress and anxiety, aid relaxation, provide a sense of security, and are a great diversion from troubles. One medical study showed that people's blood pressure would fall when they stroked their pets.
Pets are increasingly being used in therapy for the elderly and those who have Alzheimer's disease or physical disabilities. One lady in Tucson, Arizona, shares her lovely little dog with many elderly nursing home residents. She takes her dog there at least once or twice a week and allows the elderly people to hold and pat her little dog. They eagerly await its arrival and always ask when she and her dog will be back. She is just one of hundreds of people who share their pets with with the old and lonely.拥有宠物的人常说它们是多好的陪伴以及与它们在一起有多少乐趣。宠物专家和研究者还确定了拥有宠物和与宠物交流而带来的许多其他好处。除了已经提到过的，宠物还能缓和紧张和焦虑，有助身心放松，提供安全感，以及摆脱困扰。某医学研究显示，在人们抚摸宠物的时候，血压会下降。宠物正被越来越多地用于上了年纪的人和治疗患有早老性痴呆病或其他生理疾病的患者身上。在亚利桑那州图森的一位女士与许多住在养老院里的老人分享她可爱的小狗。她每周带着狗去他们那儿至少一二次，让老人们抱抱或者抚摸这只小狗。老人们急切地等着它的到来，并总是问她，她和她的狗什么时候还会再来。与孤寡或年老的人分享宠物的人有许多，这位女士只是其中的一位。
