Many dog lovers like us, however, have friends that can\u2019t understand our passion for our dogs. <strong>How is it possible to experiment such deep feelings for animals?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well, in HANNIKO, far from trying to evangelize those who have not yet had the good fortune to share life with a pet, we have learned to respond in a concise way to everyone who asks us about <a href=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/en\/blog\/hanniko-love-our-dogs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">how do we make it to share life with three different dogs<\/a>: because they make us happy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16015\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-tener-perro-te-hace-mas-feliz-embajadores-hanniko-5.jpg\" alt=\"Los embajadores de la casa Hanniko\" width=\"881\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>We knew it<\/h2>\n<p>But a study conducted in the University of Miami (called that way even if it\u2019s located in Ohio and not in Florida) scientifically certifies why having a dog makes you happy.<\/p>\n<h3>1. <strong>Dogs make our human relationships better <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>There\u2019s a statistic about the previous mentioned study where it shows that <strong>people with dogs are much more extroverted<\/strong>. Can you identify yourself? Maybe we can\u2019t generalize it but it is a fact that having a dog implies talking to him and with the rest of dog owners of your neighborhood. If you\u2019re shy, you need to know that it is in your hand to be a little more sociable so that you can change your destiny.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16016\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-tener-perro-te-hace-mas-feliz-complicidad-3.jpg\" alt=\"La complicidad entre perro y humano\" width=\"870\" height=\"586\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2. <strong>They help us fight stress<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It is proved that <strong>the simple fact of thinking of our dog generates endorphines<\/strong>. Endorphins are the neurotransmitters responsible for our sense of well-being. We make them appear with sport, with sex, with humor and love &#8230; and, of course, enjoying daily life with our dog.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15995 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-tener-perro-te-hace-mas-feliz-felicidad.jpg\" alt=\"Los perros nos dan felicida\" width=\"870\" height=\"586\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>3. <strong>They increase your our good mood<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A good amount of endorphines is what increases our good mood. Being in a good mood is a more attractive way of facing the world, right? Observing life with a positive perspective makes us suffer less and see the positive side of things. Recommendation: in a peak of worry, watch your dog. Surely <strong>you&#8217;ll find him waiting for you, staring at you with a smile and wagging his tail<\/strong>. Enjoy the moment and face your problems from another point of view.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"Los perros est\u00e1n siempre pendiente de nosotros\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>4.\u00a0They help us to exercise<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s a vicious circle.<strong> If you enjoy life with your dog, sure he also enjoys it<\/strong>. That means that you go for walks and play more than once a day. That m\u00ednimum of activity, in addition to tone up your body, also activates your brain. Exactly. Again the endorphines show up and the rest of the good mood neurotransmitters. What brings us to another irrefutable truth:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-16008 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-tener-perro-te-hace-mas-feliz-saludable-2.jpg\" alt=\"Los perros nos ayudan a hacer ejercicio\" width=\"870\" height=\"520\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>5. <strong>They turn us into much healthier human beings<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Did you know that those who have dogs go less to the doctor? Being healthy is a compendium of many healthy habits: healthy eating, having a good rest, doing exercise\u2026 And as mental health is in direct relation to our physic health, this study demonstrates that <strong>the derived fact of having a dog helps to control the blood pressure and the cholesterol<\/strong>. In consequence, having a dog reduces the risk of suffering from cardiovascular pathologies. There you go!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15994 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-tener-perro-te-hace-mas-feliz-familia.jpg\" alt=\"Los perros nos hacen m\u00e1s fuertes y saludables\" width=\"870\" height=\"586\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>6. <strong>They fight our loneliness<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Having a dog is an infallible remedy against loneliness. <strong>They make us feel like the prime characters of their love<\/strong> and they never let us drawn in our own sadness. They are always there for us, creating a sensation of having a small family even in the loneliest people.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-16006 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-tener-perro-te-hace-mas-feliz-amor-de-perro-2.jpg\" alt=\"Los perros son un remedio infalible contra la soledad\" width=\"870\" height=\"586\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>7. <strong>They make us more responsable<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t you forget. Having a dog implies a bigger responsability. <strong>Many people say that having a dog before being parents have helped them to be more responsible and prepared by the time the baby arrived.<\/strong>\u00a0A dog deserves all sort of cares: food, doctor, leisure, exercise\u2026 We should always take them into account, <a href=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/en\/blog\/traveling-with-dogs-is-possible\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">even when we make holiday plans<\/a>,\u00a0for instance.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-16007 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hanniko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Hanniko-handmade-european-design-casa-hanniko-tener-perro-te-hace-mas-feliz-complicidad-2.jpg\" alt=\"Los perros nos hacen m\u00e1s responsables\" width=\"870\" height=\"570\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So there\u2019s no doubt. The question has a very simple answer: <strong>you wanna be happy? Then have a dog<\/strong>. Get close to the nearest dog shelter and adopt one. You\u2019ll soon start to experiment a great dog life.
