They are happiness on 4 legs. Never met a creature that made me smile as much as a dog. ❤

Dogs will love you more than you love yourself…💕

I'm a psychiatrist. My pitbull sits in the same seat as me as I see patients. Except for my OCD patients w contamination issues.....everybody loves her. Great way to break the ice when a sweet dog greets u coming in.

I'm so glad she's helping you. There's nothing like the love of a dog. ❤❤❤🐕🐕🐕

Great for you that the dog has alleviated your depression. And great for the dog that you take her to dog parks. This is so good for a dog's mental and physical health.

Animals restore, the soul restore the spirit.

You rescued each other… how wonderful!

What an excellent story! The pupper seems so happy now...hes now living his best life for sure!.

My best friend is a dog. She has gave me the love that nobody else did, when I needed it. And I have return that love. Everytime she sees me she is super happy and cant hide her excitenment, Im always happy to see her too. She follows me everywhere when I am around :) unconditional love

I also struggle with chronic depression and I got my girl certified as a psychiatric service dog. I always say that she is the best medicine. It's an uphill journey and people don't always understand why I need her but it's always been worth it.

You two will take care of each other.

I was already diagnosed with severe depression when my mom died. As expected, it became even worse. Got a dog as recommended by my doc. People were dubious whether I could take care of a puppy. Having a dog changed my life. I no longer relied on medication and became happier. Truly, dogs are the best antidepressants!

Money can’t buy happiness but you can rescue it

Kaya and Taylor were meant for each other

Pets are unconditional love at it's finest.

BEAUTIFUL!! They can magically keep you so less stressed and so joyous in this world!! I live for my dogs 💟

'We rescue the dogs and the dogs save us humans in return'...a sayingthat could not be truer.

Dogs are ALWAYS the best antidepressant. ❤

Animals can REALLY help with depression.

There is NO LIFE without dogs!

I rescued a bonded pair of whippets seven years ago, which helped me no end during a very difficult time back then. I often reflect, who saved who?

I couldn't live without my dog. My furbabys keep me going with all the love

Best cure for depression

Puppies are always an anti-depressant

I’m so happy for the both of you! Borders are usually highly intelligent and motivated pups who need a constant job, challenge, and exercise. I’m glad you two found each other! 💕 🐾🐾

God bless this woman and her gorgeous doggy ❤

So glad they found each other!

I have PTSD and depression anxiety, I got a newborn kitten 2 years ago and since then I have gotten off my depression medicine! She was the best thing that's ever happened to me besides my children she brings so much joy into my life she is my best friend!

Oh My! To be literally given a Border Collie???!!!!! Good match! What a gift! WOOF! 🐶💓

She is your angel.

❤ I understand that ❤. Dogs heal old wounds❤

Kay might have health issues but she still has a lot to offer in life

These two were made for each other

Is there a time when a dog isn't an antidepressant 🙂

She looks like an absolute sweetheart.. ❤

You chose your dog, and Kay Kay clearly chose her human! Dogs absolutely deserve all the love and affection we can give them, and we absolutely deserve all the love and affection they can give us ‘cause when the connection is there it’s a thing of beauty…and the connection is between you and Kay Kay is stunningly beautiful! Sending love & aloha from Honolulu to you and your new ohana member! 🥰🤙🏽❤️🌈☀️

A dog is the BEST antidepressant EVER! I have a blue fawn pitbull named hannah and she is my ESA i LOVE her will ALL my heart.

Is there a time when a dog isn't an antidepressant .

Wish you both happiness and good health.

Beautiful ❤❤❤

Kaya is beautiful! I'm glad she found her furever home!! 😊

I have found that the best remedy for depression is happy music, belly laugh jokes, and gardening. My daily routine uses all of them. My depressed brain needs that stimulation I have discovered. Dancing with my two dogs helps, too!

You needed each other. So sweet.

Beautiful relationship, dogs are therapeutic....so loving and sweet xo

I adopted a rescue dog 2 years ago. I was told she was a beagle-hound mix...embark dna test revealed she is actually a german shepherd, husky, hound mix - lol! What I thought would be a 35lbs dog is currently 92lbs!!! But she is the cutest dog I have ever owned. Just like your experience, I have delt with a lot of depression and anxiety and hypertension the last 10+ years, and adopting my rescue 2 years ago was the greatest decision ever! :) Just thinking about her makes me smile...and I swear when I hug her and tell her "I love you" she understands me...she really lifts my spirits and gets me outside walking...and she listens to me...and the husky in her leads to a lot of talking back to me or just communicating when she wants to go for a walk and even when she wants to take an afternoon nap with me - no joke! She's so cute. I feel sad for her when we're in public because she looks like a big scary dog and lots of people change direction or the side of the street to avoid her. But I understand and that's ok. All I know is that I kiss her and tell her I love her every single day because life without her wouldn't be the same! Dogs are the best companions on the planet hands down! :)

I always had and have dogs and they are the best friends. When aged they fly to the sky with their own angel 😇 I cry and cry. And I believe the next one is send by the last one from heaven. Be happy forever family and dogs 🐕❤

Another great heartwarming story❤ She is your best friend for life. What a gorgeous dog😊

I am so happy for you to adopt her. She is the best thing for you.

They were meant to be together.....!!!❤

❤❤❤. They’re meant for each other. X

Really animals is the best friend and best well wisher of our life's, animals understand human emotions, animals very loyal , thank you so much adopt this beautiful brave buddy, god bless you.

Bless their hearts.

I am so glad Kaya rescued this nice young lady. ❤

If I wasn’t so damn tired all the time, I’d love to play with puppies for hours on end 😞

Thank you for adopting this beautiful Sweetheart ❤️❤️❤️

Congratulations to you both for finding your heart partners 🐾 it's a relationship like no other. Many happy and playful years together!

She looks exactly like my dog and she's really sweet. 🥰

**UNTIL ONE HAS TRULY LOVED AN ANIMAL, A PART OF ONES SOUL REMAINS UNAWAKENED!!**

Beautiful story. I burst into tears when I saw her name. My dog of 14 years was called Kaya. I got her from an animal refuge when she was just 8 weeks old. I got her when I was just 19 years of age. She was my best friend and my everything ❤

Cats and dogs are the true antidepressants! I got through years and years of bad jobs because I woke up in the morning and came home every night just because I was greeted by an eagar furry face!

Yep, no pills needed when you have a dog (or any pet really). They're so loving and loyal. Real sweethearts ❤

So happy you discovered how wonderful & loving dogs/pets are for us. You're doggie is very lucky to have such a loving owner who values pets. Glad your depression is better.

God bless you for taking care of this precious soul. Critters rule!

So so wonderful how they found each other!

Dogs, and really any pet, fulfill such a role in our lives. They can make a difference!

So glad you adopted her. IDK how anyone could give her up after 7 years - lifestyle change WTH!

They are always the best.

Many years of love and happiness to you both❤

It's amazing what animals can do for someone's mental health, from a rat, cat, dog horse, or even pig. They are nonjudgemental, love you unconditionally, and they just somehow know when your having a really shitty day that you need a little TLC and just come for a snuggle. I don't know what I would do without my 2 cats, my ginger tom suffers from really bad anxiety, but everything is on his terms, then we rescued 8wk kitten (black cats are hard to rehome in UK, due to the stigma attached to them ) he's the total opposite and so loving and gentle and knows when your having a bad day.

2:30 this is so true with doggos!!! They just unlock a new side of yours which you never knew there was or there could be. ❤❤😊🎉

Pets are the best therapy ever! They literally saved my life and now that I've lost them all due to old age and ilness I live every day hoping I can have other pets in the future as I can't right now. They're pure love and joy! ❤

Dog's are God's gift to us !!!! 🐕🐶

Aussies are the best! We've always had one and always will! We have a Toy Australian Shepherd now. Shes just like a standard size only in a smaller package❤

That's a true love ❤️ 😊

Kay is a beautiful dog and seems very sweet. You saved her and, I think, she saved you. Her love is unconditional and she will always accept you for who you are. Sharing your life with her beats taking any medication or treatment. A dog’s love heals many ailments, restores confidence, brings happiness and provides companionship. I hope the two of you live a long, healthy and happy life together filled with love. Good luck!! ❤❤❤❤

Beautiful friendship

They complete each other ❤❤❤

When you rescue a dog, they pour love out onto you. A great antidepressant.

Lovely❤! I remember reading an article where a woman with multiple health issues lost her cat. Her health that had been stable started to decline. She was talking to her doctor, not a therapist or mental health specialist, I think it may have been her cardiologist., and he said, “Get another cat.” She did almost immediately after he said that & her condition began to improve. Don’t underestimate what love from a pet can do!

Hooray for you both! ❤❤

Thank you for taking a chance on her! ❤❤ glad to hear your mental health is doing better! 😊

Dog can be defined as unconditional love wearing a fur coat. 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️

An Animal's love goes beyond the Physical you, Animals love your Soul 🐕 🐈 🐎 🐒 ❤

Eckhart Tolle says that dogs are guardian of being ❤

Happy Pet Month! Of course, every day is Pet Day. Just ask mine. :) I am so glad that Kaya and Taylor adopted each other. I love that Taylor said she was concerned about having a high energy dog and then gets one of the most energetic dogs! lol! Good for her taking Kay to the dog park to run and run. Blessings!!!!!!

Dogs are the best people 💓🐾

BEAUTIFUL, I am so happy for you both 🤍🖤💚

So happy you found puppy love. Wishing you well. ❤

Animals and being with them is the best therapy and medicine you could ever have 💖❤️❤️!! Bless you for adopting Kay Kay as well 🐶😻💖❤️!!

A therapy dog ❤

I think you have a beautiful border collie .ive had shelties for 30 years and now i babysit a 6 yr old corgie and i have seamus the sheltie whos 14 lol i love them so much!

Dogs unfortunately are not an antidepressant for me. But I love dogs and I enjoy seeing others that find happiness with them. Dogs are truly amazing creatures and just the definition of unconditional love.

Dogs are ALWAYS in a 'happy mood'.... And thats infectious!...😅

I LOVE this story!!! Animals are miracle workers. Hope you feel much much better as time goes on!! XOX From Ireland

My cat brought me back from dark places, too. I can relate to this story in many ways.

So happy that she has been bringing you joy!

Absolutely gorgeous

Pets are especially good for depression and anxiety. Congratulations for finding your own way May you find

Beautiful!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I’m so glad you took her home! TY!
