Loving animals that show you affection especially cats and dogs will make you live longer because they reduce your stress level, and make you happy. What is better than coming home from a hard day of work and having your pet play with you.

That depends on whether you are counting their age in "dog years" or human years. One human year usually equals 7 dog years, so if your dog is 4 years old by human standards he is actually 28 in dog years.

In human years, a human would always outlive a dog since most dogs only live 10-16 years or so before old age and physical complications set in.

If you look at it from a dog years perspective, a dog at 16 human years would be 112 in dog years.
