Animals are part of many children's lives and this has positive effects on the development and growth of children. A child who learns to take care of an animal and to treat it with kindness discovers extremely important values, such as empathy and dedication.

What are all the benefits of growing up with a pet?

First of all, children can find a faithful ally and an excellent adventure companion in a puppy. This will help the little ones never feel alone and always have a loving friend by their side. Furthermore, taking care of a pet also means spending more time outdoors to take it for a walk, go for walks, run and play together. Another positive side is closely connected to the bond that is created between animal and family. Looking after a puppy allows mom and dad, children and siblings to spend more time together , creating happy memories and strengthening their relationship. To convey a sense of responsibility and commitment to children, parents can also give their children simple tasks such as feeding the puppy or filling his water bowl. In this way they will learn to be increasingly independent in managing the puppy and to develop patience and respect towards him and in general in relationships with others.
