Guest guest Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 HI Kellie, I have two dogs - in house - 3 chickens - outside of course, a horse (who gets neglected because I can't brush her much and she hasnt been ridden in years). I couldnt live without my animals. Sam my littlest yorkie mix is my constant conpanion. I was up last night from 1 - 3 and he stayed right by my side. When I go to bed, he sleeps curled up next to me. If I am in pain, I just reach down and pet him. He seems to sense a lot. The other dog is a large sheppard mix. She is a sweetheart but much older and is kind of senile so she doesnt sense as much. --- Kellie Ross wrote: > Hi all!, > Just out of curiousity, how many fibro. people out > there have animals, and do they help in dealing with > pain.
