How pets can restore your sanity

I don’t have children, but I do have the worlds best dog. His name is Syd and he is the best natured Maltese poodle you could meet. Whenever I’m having a rough day, it’s like he knows. He will come straight to me and look at me, then lick me and sit on my lap and not leave my side.

Syd doesn’t judge me. He doesn’t hurt me. He just loves me unconditionally. And this helps me so much when I’m having a hard time. He is the one thing that can make me smile and feel accepted. He hates photos though which we are working on.
