My dogs help me forget about stress and just helps me relax.
They also help me keep fit because i jog/walk the 2X a day.
Well I got into a car accident back in may 2007 .. I couldn’t do much .. I couldn’t drive .. I couldn’t stand for more then 2 mins w.o crying from the pain… and i couldn’t even walk all that good.. My Fiance worked long hours at the time and thought that i need something to give me that push … One day he surprised me with my baby girl ( pug pup ) after work .. and since then I can stand w.o pain .. I can walk as well as i could before my accident .. and i can drive again…
I forced myself to get out of my depressed days of wanting to stay in bed … and took my new little girl for a walk .. at first it was hard .. and now i have worked up the want to get a job .. and get out of my house .. i didn’t leave my yard for 5 months .. I work every day and I’m happier then ever and I have my little girl to thank for this ..
same as answer 1
