I have found that a hug from a dog can cure a lot. Now, if you're not a "dog person" I guess you may not agree. But there is something about the undivided attention that a dog gives you, you know they are not thinking "I don't have time to comfort her, I have to do my taxes!" or "I'd rather be watching Animal Planet than sitting here getting pet!" While we may have a million things on our mind and in our lives, for our pets we are their lives. That unconditional love is some kind of great medicine.
