From “Recycled Love” by Tracy Jessiman:
“Some people in politics will tell you just about anything to win an election but not this rescue dad. He [Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston] and his wife have fostered and advocated for homeless dogs for more years than they can count… He and his wife understand owning a dog has been proven to be beneficial to one’s mental health: blood pressure is lowered when petting a dog; living with a dog can take away loneliness and help with depression; and people receive boundless love from a dog. All this, plus dogs get people outside and can even make people more social… All rescue dogs should be as lucky as to find a loving, supportive home.”
