The psychology of the relationship between pets, clients and veterinarians

In our studies we were able to demonstrate that dogs and cats contribute in many ways to man's well-being and to quality of life, with regard to aspects such as general quality of life, prophylaxis, education, and therapy. Man's personality is co-determined by pets; pet animals support man and make demands on him/her and even train, influence man to a certain extent, and, in the case of physical and psychic diseases, act as remedy and cure. Pets are able to contribute to our becoming a little more humane again.
