The Benefits of Having a Pet

Scientists say that having a pet can also make you feel less stressed and stop you from feeling lonely. They think some of the benefits might be linked to this new discovery about memory, but it's remembering to look after a fish or a feathery or furry friend can help you remember other things too. In Croatia, there's a mountain range called Vellibut and it's famous for having lots of rocky cliffs and deep caves. A hiker was exploring with their dog when they slipped over and fell. Their canine companion, a dog named North, wasn't hurt. He curled up to sleep on top of them, keeping them in their injured leg warm during the cold, cold night.
