Dogs bring people together! The social benefits of having a dog can’t be overstated. It’s never alone when the dog is home! They are social by nature –think about it, how many friends have you met because of your dog? Dogs encourage us to get out and do — and ENJOY!
Community
I love the PawsGo community! It is so fun to connect with other animal lovers, and see where everyone’s paws are going. Our dogs didn’t lobby to come live with us, we chose to bring them into our family – so it would be unfair to treat them like an inconvenience! We start and end each day with walks, and love our adventures!
