SLEEP BETTER WITH A DOG

(September, 2017) A new study finds that sleeping with your dog may actually help you sleep better. Mayo Clinic researchers conducted a study to see whether a dog’s presence in the bedroom would disturb a person’s sleep. The study observed 40 healthy adults without sleep disorders occupying the same bedroom as their dogs, who were no younger than 6 months old, for seven nights. All subjects wore an accelerometer that tracked sleep activity. The findings showed that those who let their dogs sleep in their bedrooms had an easier time sleeping than those who did not.
* So, dog farts actually work as a narcotic?
* Since when did the Mayo Clinic start doing junk science?
* Maybe somebody over there is running a puppy mill.
* Or has shares in Petco or PetSmart.
* You’ll sleep better – until 5 a.m., when the dog needs to go out.
* Hmm – did they ever study how well people sleep whose bedroom is also occupied by a blow-up doll?
* It’s a joke, folks. Seriously.
