		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Jonathan&lt;/strong&gt;,
If I were in the hospital I would love to be visited by a dog.  As it is, if I&#039;m feeling low I either go over to the local shelter to get my doggie fix or else just look at pictures of happy dogs.  It works every time.  :)

Thanks for taking the time to comment.  I really appreciate it.</description>

		<description>This reminds me of a lately at my work who trained dogs to be &quot;comfort dogs&quot; for sick patients in the hospital.  Sometimes just a &quot;kiss&quot; from one of the golden retrievers could make their day.

Great article, thank you for sharing.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;bikehikebabe&lt;/strong&gt;,
:) Thank you!

I think you&#039;re doing a great thing by letting your neighbors&#039; dogs hike with you.  They must love it.</description>

		<description>Jean, You say you don&#039;t believe in a theist god or eternal life. Neither does my husband who is the kindest, most loving to everyone, helpful, honest etc. person ---along with you Jean. I was agnostic, (even tho&#039; I went to church every Sun. with my family. My husband did too.) But I was none of the above. I&#039;ve improved greatly but am still a Progress in the Works. (P.S. I LOVE animals. My husband doesn&#039;t care for animals. He never had one.)</description>
