    Of course, it is possible, and a research study by Professor Zheng Richang of the School of Psychology of Beijing Normal University has shown that compared with empty nesters who do not have pets, the elderly with pets are healthier physiologically and psychologically, and go to the hospital less often. Pets can provide a sense of security for the elderly, meet the psychology of the elderly's need to be cared for, and alleviate the loneliness of the elderly.

    What kind of dog is suitable for the elderly?

    Most elderly people will prefer to "look pleasing to the eye" without considering personality factors. Although pets are friends of the elderly, the pet's personality should be "tempered" with the elderly. If the elderly who like to be quiet, choose a lively and active pet, it is possible to increase the psychological burden; When a quiet pet enters the home of the elderly who like to go out for a walk, the "pistachio" may become a "nest fire", which makes the elderly unhappy and counterproductive.

    Therefore, the closer the pet's personality is to its owner, the more harmonious it will be and the easier it will be to cultivate affection.

    Due to the limitations of physical conditions, the elderly should raise the kind of dog breed with a small amount of exercise, good cooking, docile temperament and small appetite. Such as Pomeranians, Chihuahuas, Toy Poodles, Fawn Dogs, Pugs, etc. Older people who are relatively healthy and like to use running as a form of exercise can consider raising a pit bull.

    When choosing a dog breed, also pay attention to the length of the coat. Short-haired dogs are easy to clean and groom, making them suitable for frail seniors, while long-haired dogs need frequent bathing, and seniors who like to groom their dogs can have fun with them.

    The elderly in their twilight years, due to emotional loneliness and loneliness, often have a deeper affection for pets, and are easy to fall into the "pet dependence complex" and cannot extricate themselves, putting all their energy and emotions on them, and reducing the normal interpersonal interactions. In this regard, Lan Zihui of the Beijing Pet Companion Center reminded that in fact, pets can act as "diplomatic messengers", and the elderly can make new friends and receive new information through communication with other pet owners when walking pets.

    The lifespan of pets is usually only more than ten years, in case of misfortune, the elderly should face it calmly with a positive and optimistic attitude, and other family members should respect and understand the feelings of the elderly, and give the elderly more care during this period. In addition, you can raise another pet when it is old and sick, so that when the parting moment comes, the new pet can soothe the owner's wounded heart, and the elderly friends may wish to give it a try.

    I think that if there is an elderly person at home, it is suitable to raise such a puppy that is obedient and more intelligent and capable, and it is suitable for the elderly to take care of. For example, I think the Chinese pastoral dog is quite suitable and has the right size. It is not impossible for the elderly to take care of them, and at the same time, they have a relatively intelligent housekeeping ability, and a gentle and obedient temperament.

    Hello Teddy and Bichon are suitable for domestication.

    Dogs (Latin name: canis lupus familiaris) belong to the canids of the order Carnivora. Dogs are found all over the world.

    When they live in groups, they also have a "hierarchy" that can maintain the stability of the entire group and reduce the vicious fights and wars caused by food, living space and competition for the opposite sex. Dogs are territorial, occupy a certain area of their own, and protect them from other animals. The hydrolens of a dog's eye is relatively large and distorted like a horse's eyeball.

    The canines are all short-crowned, maxillary.

    The crowns of the first and second incisors are trimodal, with canine pinnacles in the middle and small pinnacles on both sides. In Chinese culture, the dog belongs to one of the 12 zodiac signs, the 11th place in the 12 zodiac signs. [1]
