A permission to keep our dog

The Issue

Tokyo our pet , it is essential in our lives , my daughter has manage to overcome her depression and anxiety by having Tokyo around, since last year 2020. We as a family have been able to get through difficult family issues . Last year we had lost our grandmother , plus living during  a pandemic, that has caused us isolation , less spending time with family and friends and so much concern about our lives . From our estate (100) flats more than half signed a form, showing interest in having Dogs, but the corporation didn’t took this into account. So please help to change the pets policy and make a difference in children’s life .According to Daniel Chard from Bird and Co the mental health benefits of pets, including reducing stress and anxiety and providing companionship, can’t be ignored. There are so much benefits by having a dog ; such as :

.To provide a friend during the continued lockdown.
.A boost in mental health
.Greater immunity to illness
.Taking pressure off the NHS
.Reducing loneliness
.Increasing pet adoption rates
.General happiness and wellbeing should soar.
