●Afterword●
So many words of praise were said about the dog
We seem to be ignoring the other pets
In fact, this is not just referring to dogs
Cats, pet rabbits, ornamental birds...
These cute pets can also become "companion animals"
Pets are the most loyal and reliable friends of human beings
Not only does it bring countless joys to the world
It is more conducive to people's physical and mental health
If there are angels in the world
Maybe it's all around you
Reminder:
(Expectant mothers and pets should do toxoplasmosis and other tests before they are pregnant)
