Question

Bashert is a gentle, golden dog. In her mind, there is no human problem so big she can't lick(舔) better. When her owner is sad, she licks him to make him happy. When her owner feels upset, she licks him again to encourage him.

"When I go to camp, I miss Bashert a lot," Bashert's owner Aaron Richards, a 14-year-old boy in the US, told the New York Times.

Animals like Bashert play an important part in people's lives. Whether it is a dog, a cat or a goldfish, people always enjoy their companionship(陪伴). But do you know that people also love animals for other reasons?

When staying with animals, people can relax. Compared to the human world, the animal world seems to be simpler. People don't need to worry about being judged by words or behaviors. For children, they can forget grades and class performance. What they feel is warmth and acceptance without any conditions.

Animals, especially pets, also teach people to learn responsibility. Besides feeding and cleaning them, you also need to care for them. When they are sick, take them to an animal hospital. When they feel lonely, just play with them for a while. When they get old, you should spend time with them and let them know that you will always love them. Such a caring heart also tells you to treat people in a nice way. Then, you will find yourself a much beloved person.
