A desire that is repeated year after year in many of the homes is to incorporate a pet into the family.<br \/>Introducing a dog into the family is not something trivial and it is that a dog is not a toy and it is a decision that has to be very thoughtful, since having a dog carries a lot of responsibility and obligations. In addition, we must keep in mind that if we decide on a puppy, it grows, it can make its needs at home and it also makes them crowded.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>For those people who have decided to give a dog this Christmas the article we bring today is directed, which is based on the benefits that a dog gives us in our day to day and to encourage the adoption of them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why should we adopt and not buy a dog?<\/strong><br \/>Like you, other people in previous years also had the idea of \u200b\u200bgiving a dog for Christmas. However, when he grows up, makes trastadas or conditions his life, he is no longer so dear and is abandoned.<strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, in Spain there is a very high number of dog abandonments throughout the year. Numerous protectors struggle every day to get many of these dogs that have been abandoned or unfairly mistreated by their previous owners off the street and give them the opportunity to have a new life where they are loved and treated as they deserve.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, adopting a dog instead of buying it gives you the satisfaction of feeling good by giving the animal a new opportunity, a home where you will be loved and taken care of.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, in the protectors there are not only mongrel dogs, but also of many breeds. As for age, the same thing happens, there are both adults and puppies. The puppies are the ones that go out for adoption before, but we invite you to give the opportunity to one of these older dogs, because they are really affectionate and, unfortunately, they are the ones who have been able to experience situations of abandonment or abuse.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advantages of introducing a dog in the family for Christmas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fulfill an illusion<br \/>The first of the advantages of introducing a dog into the family for Christmas, is that it has surely been requested by a family member, so fulfilling that illusion will not only make the person who asked for it happy but it will to strengthen family ties.<\/p>\n<p>Reduce anxiety and depression<br \/>Stress and anxiety are one of the great causes of diseases of our day to day. Well, several studies have shown that people who spend time with a dog feel more relaxed and less stressed.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, they help overcome depression. Specifically, many therapists urge their patients to adopt a dog, since it gives them unconditionally affection and forces them to leave home and interact with other people, all of them acts that cause the person who is in depression to overcome that disease .<\/p>\n<p>You are happier<br \/>It seems incredible that an animal conditions you to be happier or less, but it is true, since being with dogs makes you more cheerful, lifts your spirits, keeps you in a good mood and also helps you develop empathy<\/p>\n<p>They help the elderly<br \/>Many elders need to keep their minds healthy and one of the ways is for the old man to be committed to another and this is where the dog figure comes in. The old man has to take care of the dog so it is a very beneficial relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Motivate mobility and help establish a routine<br \/>Exercising is great for your health, but many people don&#8217;t like it or get lazy. Well, having a dog forces you to walk it at least 3 times a day, so it already forces you to leave home and exercise. In addition, there are sports to do in company with our pets that are very fun.<\/p>\n<p>As we have seen the dog you have to take it out several times a day, so this helps you establish a daily routine and develop responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>It makes you not feel alone<br \/>The dog is an ideal companion for those people who are going through a bad time or who are alone. The dogs keep them company and allow them to spend the day in a very pleasant way.<\/p>\n<p>They cause great positive effects to children<br \/>When interacting with dogs, children not only show a greater immune system, but it is proven that those children who are raised with animals show less allergies.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, they help them to have more confidence in themselves, to know how to relate properly and, above all, to be more responsible, since caring for a dog requires obligations.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, dogs can be of great help for those children who suffer from diseases such as diabetes or epilepsy, since there are dogs that are trained to detect when the child will have a clinical picture and thus warn and act quickly.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, there are many advantages to introduce a dog in the family.

Sin embargo, cuando \u00e9ste crece, hace trastadas o les condiciona la vida, ya no es tan querido y es abandonado.\r\n\r\nPor desgracia, en Espa\u00f1a hay <strong>una cifra muy elevada de abandonos<\/strong> de <strong>perros<\/strong> durante todo el a\u00f1o.\u00a0 Numerosas protectoras luchan d\u00eda a d\u00eda para sacar de la calle a muchos de estos perros que han sido abandonados o maltratados injustamente por sus anteriores due\u00f1os y les dan la oportunidad de tener <strong>una nueva vida<\/strong> donde sean queridos y tratados como se merecen.\r\n\r\nPor ello, adoptar a un perro en vez de comprarlo da la satisfacci\u00f3n de sentirte bien al estar d\u00e1ndole una nueva oportunidad al animal, un hogar donde se le de cari\u00f1o y donde se le cuide.\r\n\r\nAdem\u00e1s, en las protectoras <strong>no solo hay perros mestizos<\/strong>, sino tambi\u00e9n de muchas razas. En cuanto a la edad, pasa absolutamente lo mismo, hay tanto adultos como cachorros. Los cachorros son los que antes salen en adopci\u00f3n, pero os invitamos a darle la oportunidad a uno de estos perros m\u00e1s mayores, porque son realmente cari\u00f1osos y, por desgracia, son los que m\u00e1s han podido experimentar\u00a0 situaciones de abandono o maltrato.\r\n<h2>Ventajas de introducir un perro en la familia para Navidad<\/h2>\r\n<h3>Cumplir una ilusi\u00f3n<\/h3>\r\nLa primera de las <strong>ventajas<\/strong> que tiene introducir un perro en la familia para Navidad, es que seguramente ha sido pedido por alg\u00fan miembro de la familia, por lo que cumplir esa ilusi\u00f3n no solo va hacer feliz a la persona que lo ha pedido sino que va a reforzar los lazos familiares.\r\n<h3>Reduce la ansiedad y la depresi\u00f3n<\/h3>\r\nEl estr\u00e9s y la ansiedad son unas de las grandes causas de enfermedades de nuestro d\u00eda a d\u00eda. Pues bien, varios estudios han demostrado que aquellas personas que pasan tiempo con un perro se sienten m\u00e1s relajadas y menos estresadas.\r\n\r\nAdem\u00e1s, ayudan a superar depresiones. En concreto, muchos terapeutas instan a sus pacientes a adoptar a un perro, ya que \u00e9ste les da cari\u00f1o incondicionalmente y les obliga a salir de casa y a relacionarse con otras personas, actos todos ellos que provocan que la persona que est\u00e1 en depresi\u00f3n supere esa enfermedad.\r\n<h3>Eres m\u00e1s feliz<\/h3>\r\nParece mentira que un animal te condicione a ser m\u00e1s feliz o menos, pero es cierto, ya que el estar con perros te hace ser m\u00e1s alegre,\u00a0 te levanta el \u00e1nimo, te mantienen de buen humor y adem\u00e1s te ayudan a desarrollar la empat\u00eda\r\n<h3>Ayudan a las personas mayores<\/h3>\r\nMuchos ancianos necesitan mantener la mente saludable y una de las formas es que el anciano se encuentre comprometido con otro y es aqu\u00ed donde entra la figura del perro.\u00a0 El anciano tiene que cuidar al perro por lo que es una relaci\u00f3n muy beneficiosa.\r\n<h3>Motivan la movilidad y ayudan a establecer una rutina<\/h3>\r\nHacer ejercicio es buen\u00edsimo para la salud, pero a muchas personas no les gusta o les da pereza. Pues bien, tener un perro te obliga\u00a0 a pasearlo al menos 3 veces al d\u00eda, por lo que ya te obliga a salir de casa y a hacer ejercicio. Adem\u00e1s, existen deportes para hacer en compa\u00f1\u00eda con nuestras mascotas que son muy divertidos.\r\n\r\nComo ya hemos visto al perro hay que sacarlo varias veces al d\u00eda, por lo que esto te ayuda a establecer una rutina diaria y a desarrollar la responsabilidad.\r\n<h3>Te hace no sentirte solo<\/h3>\r\nEl perro es un compa\u00f1ero ideal para aquellas personas que est\u00e1n pasando por un mal momento o que se encuentran solas. Los perros les hacen compa\u00f1\u00eda y les permiten pasar el d\u00eda a d\u00eda de una forma muy agradable.\r\n<h3>Provocan grandes efectos positivos a los ni\u00f1os<\/h3>\r\nAl relacionarse con perros, los ni\u00f1os no solo muestran un sistema inmunol\u00f3gico mayor, sino que est\u00e1 comprobado que aquellos ni\u00f1os que se cr\u00edan con animales muestran menos alergias.\r\n\r\nAdem\u00e1s, les ayudan a tener m\u00e1s confianza en s\u00ed mismos, a saber relacionarse adecuadamente y sobre todo a ser m\u00e1s responsables, ya que cuidar a un perro requiere de unas obligaciones.\r\n\r\nPor \u00faltimo, los perros pueden ser de gran ayuda para aquellos ni\u00f1os que sufren enfermedades como diabetes o epilepsia, ya que hay perros que est\u00e1n entrenados para detectar cuando el ni\u00f1o va a tener un cuadro cl\u00ednico y as\u00ed avisar y poder actuar de forma r\u00e1pida.\r\n\r\nComo puedes ver, existen multitud de ventajas para introducir a un perro en la familia.
