Well, back in the day when I was in high school, I did raise a dog named Andy in my house and he was my best companion ever. But then he died in an accident, which left a deep scar in my heart, so I haven’t got any new pet since then.
I guess dogs and cats are the most common pets in Vietnam. This is simply because
they are often considered to be cute, smart and loyal friends. Ontop of that, dogs and
cats are affordable and easy to find everywhere in my country.
Of course, I used to read an article somewhere on the Internet about the benefits of
children playing with pets in which the author says that pets can be good companions
for children especially those with special needs or special medical conditions such as
autism. Well, raising a pet can be troublesome sometimes but I believe they are real
good partners in our lives.
