Positive Emotional Benefits of Owning a Yorkshire Terrier

It is nice to understand that our pets can influence how we feel about ourselves in a positive manner. There are many great emotional benefits of owning a dog. Your new Yorkshire Terrier puppy may look adorable and act so cute.

The emotional bond that develops between a new Yorkshire Terrier puppy and their owner may develop quickly. However, as time goes by, all the experiences that you share with your dog help to strengthen the bond.

Each family member usually develops a special emotional attachment with their
Yorkshire Terrier around the time when your puppy is about one year old or more. Sometimes, children even turn to their pets for comfort if a family member happens to leave the family or becomes ill. Adults that may have lost a loved one may feel comfort and less lonely if they have a pet. They may feel happy to have a special pet to share their life with. A Yorkshire Terrier can be a nice companion.

People that live all alone may feel a little isolated. If they decide to choose a dog or cat and they are physically able to take care of their pet, it may help make them feel they are needed.

Often times, dogs can help us focus our attention away from our worries. When we feel sad or stressed just spending a little time with our friendly dog or cat may actually brighten our day.

Our daily lives may include many responsibilities, whether at work or at home. Your
Yorkshire Terrier may happen to do some cute and funny things, which may help you to relax and laugh a little.

When we come home from a frustrating work day it can be so nice to be greeted by our family dog, with their big beautiful eyes and their tail wagging because they are so happy to see us. It is wonderful that our pets can accept us just as we are and we can be ourselves when we are around them. Our pets don't care if we are disabled, old or young, rich or poor. Dogs and cats can provide great companionship.

Dogs can add some consistency and routine to our lives and give us something positive to look forward to every day. Many people may come and go in our lives, but our dogs are usually with us for their lifetime.

Your
Yorkshire Terrier can help to keep you active by getting more exercise, like when you are taking your dog for a nice walk and getting fresh air and sunshine. It may be nice to play Frisbee outside with him. The responsibilities of caring for a dog, such as daily feedings, grooming and playtime will help to keep you both active.

The
Yorkshire Terrier may have great affection for all the family members. Each family member may also play an important role for your dog. The man in the house may be the one that usually takes the dog outside for his walks and plays fetch outside with him in the backyard. The woman in the house may be the one that routinely gives the dog his meals and lots of attention. If there are any children in the family they may offer the Yorkshire Terrier a lot of hugs and fun playtime together.

The dog appreciates the family interaction and affection. Your
Yorkshire Terrier has probably established great trust in the family. As a proud pet owner you will be able to recognize the maturity in your dog. As time goes by, you will learn the favorite things that your dog likes, such as his strengths, weaknesses, and any fears he may have at times.

The human-animal emotional bond between an owner and their dog is one of trust, affection, and love.
Yorkshire Terriers enjoy being part of the family and a loyal dog can be a best friend. If we love them, they usually show us unconditional love in return!
