Manage episode 478432009 series 2956686
Do you have a pet? We have three! Today, we share how having pets has benefited our marriage, and we believe they can make your relationship better, too.
3 WAYS PETS MAKE YOU BETTER PARTNERS
- Pets bring us together
- Pets help us laugh together more
- Pets offer opportunities for teamwork
TAKE THE “US TIME” CHALLENGE
If you have a pet, talk about how your pet has benefited your marriage. If you don’t have a pet, maybe visit a park this week and watch the dogs and other wildlife. See how it sparks conversation or helps you laugh more.
