BorrowMyDoggy in Psychologies Magazine

BorrowMyDoggy in Psychologies Magazine

Whether you’re an owner or a borrower, “spending time with a dog can make you a happier person” - we couldn’t agree more :)

We’re so thankful that Martha Roberts featured BorrowMyDoggy in her monthly Psychologies magazine column, The Mind Experiment. The award-winning UK health writer wrote: “If you spend time time with a dog, not only will you benefit physically, you’ll also benefit psychologically.”

Curious as to what this all means?

We’ll let Martha break down the pawsome science :) Spending time with a dog:

  • Increases happiness levels
  • Reduces stress and make people feel less lonely
  • Makes people feel as happy and positive as their human best friend does


These are just some of the wagtastic reasons dogs are referred to as man’s best friend :)

We’d like to say an absowoofly huge thanks and high paws to Psychologies Magazine and Martha Roberts for spreading the word about our young pup of a company, and our aim to leave 'Pawprints of Happiness' on the lives of dogs and people.

Best woofs,

The BorrowMyDoggy Team
