At FastCo, Joe Berkowitz shares a campaign from World For All, an Indian animal welfare group, suggesting that dogs can aid people with depression. There is some evidence of this. Could buying a dog be a cheap alternative to out-of-pocket mental healthcare costs?!!?! (No.) (But this is a really cute picture of the dog that has taken my mood up two points, at least.)
