7 Things Your Dog can Teach Your Child
5. Exercise
Daily walking the dog and going out with the dog will also develop the habit of daily physical activity in your child. While dogs need daily exercise to stay physically and mentally fit, the same holds true for human beings as well.
6. The importance of family
Your dog will teach your child the importance of family. A dog is an excellent ice breaker and can negate any ill atmosphere. With its presence, your dog will teach your child how important it is to spend time with family members.

7. Patience and empathy
Last but not the least, your dog also teaches your child compassion and patience. Seldom do dogs outlive their owners and as they grow old, which would also be a pretty young and sensitive age for your child, they need special care and attention. Like old patients and very young delicate children, your dog would need to be taken care of and this will teach your child to be patient, and be empathetic towards the less privileged.
