Meet Cancer Survivor Lance & his pup Choo Choo
Happy National Love Your Pet Day!
Today, we celebrate the love and companionship that pets bring to our lives, and we acknowledge the many benefits that they provide, especially for people going through cancer treatments or in recovery.
Meet Cancer Survivor Lance & his pup Choo Choo
House and service pets can be a source of comfort and support for cancer patients. Research has shown that spending time with pets can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and alleviate feelings of loneliness and depression. For cancer patients undergoing treatment, pets can also provide a distraction from any discomfort or pain.
Service pets, such as therapy dogs or emotional support animals, are trained to provide specific types of assistance to cancer patients. They can help with mobility, provide emotional support, and even detect changes in a patient's health. Whether it's a house pet or a service animal, the love and companionship that pets provide can have a positive impact on a patient's well-being.
