A recent study, conducted at the University of Western Australia, found that young children from dog-owning households are better behaved, more empathic, and have greater emotional wellbeing than those without a dog. These results confirm what many had already believed to be true for decades. Besides all the aforementioned benefits, simply watching kids and dogs bond is one of the most heartwarming things in the world. The following pictures depict such budding friendships of kids and their furry best friends.
