It is difficult to get more cute than puppies. These patterns are easy-to-cut silhouettes. I am showing them painted black but that is optional. All the wood is 1/4" Thick.
I know I am telling pet owners something you already know. Owning and caring for pets brings all kinds of personal benefits for the caregivers.
Pets can have many personal benefits, including:
Mental health
Pets can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, and ease loneliness. Interacting with pets, such as petting, playing, or making eye contact, releases oxytocin in the brain, which can lower stress levels. Pets can also encourage people to get out of the house and meet new people, which can help with stress resiliency.
Physical health
Pets can improve cardiovascular health, lower the risk of high blood pressure, and help people control their blood pressure. They can also encourage people to exercise more and get fresh air.
Companionship
Pets can provide unconditional love and companionship and can help people feel a sense of purpose.
Security
Dogs can act quickly to detect anything unusual, which can scare off intruders or alert people in time to get to safety.
Children
Pets can help children develop emotional and social skills, and grow up more secure and active.
Older adults
Pets can provide valuable companionship for older adults
If you have the resources and means to own and care for a pet I highly recommend it. We have had Holly for almost ten years and she is truly a part of the family. We do make some small sacrifices to keep her but they are totally worth the time and effort. She makes both Patty and I smile many times a day.
INFORMATION:
I may take the next two days off. I have a bunch of house chores piling up that I need to take time to do. If I take a break and design a pattern I will post it but it will likely be a quick post. If you don't see me here then you know what I am up to.
