Quiz: how much do you know about pets?

Nowadays, pets are often more like an extension of the family. Do our quiz to find out how much you know.

Did you know that pets at work may help reduce stress, increase productivity and improve employee satisfaction, teamwork and collaboration? According to a survey of pet owners by Heart.org, pet ownership does so much more than give you a great companion: when a dog joins a collaborative setting, group members rank their teammates higher in terms of trust, team cohesion and camaraderie.

Even outside of the workplace, there have been a host of studies that explore the physical and mental health benefits of taking care of animals. According to NIH, interacting with animals has been shown to decrease levels of cortisol (a stress-related hormone) and lower blood pressure. Other studies have found that animals can reduce loneliness, increase feelings of social support, and boost your mood.

So in appreciation of our two, four and eight legged friends, take the ultimate animal quiz below.
