Daily Tip: Pets can be wonderful mood "equalizers" and "elevators"

While bringing my two dogs, Cole and Pixie home from Victoria, B.C. last summer, a taxi driver told me an interesting story.  His son had been doing poorly in school and he seemed forever to be getting into trouble and scrapes with the law, then his dad bought him a dog.
Things changed after that.  The boy felt more calm, focused, happy and relaxed because of his new canine friend.  His grades went up and he was happy.  Also, his dad was happier too.
Isn't it surprising how finding someone or something like a pet to care for can bring out the best in all of us?
