FACTS OF LIFE
It's already been established that children with pets do better socially and health-wise than those with none. Now comes evidence that adults benefit, too. One study found that heart-attack victims who had dogs were less likely to die within a year than those who didn't. And the cholesterol level of people who own pets came in around 2% lower than that of non-pet owners.
