The right dog can help alleviate loneliness. It can also help relieve depression and mental health issues.

What is important to remember

It is believed that of all animals, the dog is the most socialized animal.

A four-legged friend will require constant attention, communication and care from its owner, which will stimulate its owner to be active.

Cats are also suitable for living with older people, but they are more independent than dogs.
