To many people, pets are like family, and you want to bring them along with you wherever you go. Pets are also great companions for older adults because they are a source of comfort, reduce stress, increase social interaction, and because their goofy antics make you laugh. Unfortunately, not all places are pet-friendly and your pets will not be allowed to enter certain establishments. If you want to bring your pets along with you to your next family gathering or outing, you will find this article useful.
