    Do you think that having an animal can be beneficial for your health?

    Q.: Do you think that having an animal can be beneficial for your health?

    A.: if you eat him, yes.

    OK, I'm kidding. I do believe that having a pet...err, "anmal companion" can be very beneficial.

    But a "miracle dog"?? Gosh, somehow I just don't buy it.

    Some aspects of Russian "science" will soon catch up with the 19th century.

    I've read that petting an animal is a 'natural' stress relief. I have two cats, which I bought from the SPCA a month before my Dad died. My kitties' fur sopped up many a tear and their kitten antics made me laugh when I felt like there was nothing to laugh about.

    So for me, that's a definite yes! :)

    just to much fantasy I think.

    Having pets is good for your health - you have to walk dogs out - and mainly its good for your emotional balance.

    but that's it.
