Dogs make wonderful companions who are playful and fun to be with.
Although it is necessary to care for them by feeding, walking and cleaning them, it is well worth the effort. Dogs show loyalty to their owners and ask for little in return. There have been many examples of heroism by dogs. Families have been saved by their dog barking a warning of fire in the house or of a robber trying to break into a home at night. Police use dogs to track and capture escaped prisoners or to sniff for bombs.
