    Having a pet teaches children many skills

    When you bring a pet into the home, you can teach your children the following:

  • Responsibility: caring for a pet means being responsible for another living creature. A parent can encourage a child to take on decision making responsibilities as well. For example, if it looks like it might rain, you can ask the children to make the decision if we should still take the dog for a walk?
  • Co-operation: parents may choose to assign different pet caring responsibilities to each child. One child feeds the pet, while another ensures they have fresh water. They may also have to clean up after the pet, bathe or walk the pet. This (hopefully) means increased co-ordination and co-operation.
  • Exercise is fun: mostly for dogs, but there are some cats who like to go for a walk. The pet and the family member are getting some fresh air and exercise. As well as improved mental health, pets (specifically dogs) can improve your fitness levels.
