This Start-Up Bringing The Cutest Dogs To Your Door Step Is Reason Enough To Move To Delhi

“Dogs are not our whole life, but they certainly make our lives whole.” – Roger Caras

Having a dog in your life is a blessing. They’ll always be your best friend, remain loyal and love you unconditionally. They’ll play with you, play around you and cuddle up next to you when you need them the most. If that’s not reason enough, just look at this furry little bundle of joy being all cute for no particular reason.

 

This Delhi start-up, Fur Ball Story, is bringing all of the overwhelming cuteness straight to your doorstep and using it to help employees and students in the capital forget about their worries through what’s known as pet therapy. 

They bring in dogs and puppies trained in pet therapy to offices, universities, hospitals and residences. People can pet them, play with them and just be around them. Apart from de-stressing them, it even helps people get rid of their fear of these furry friends.

 

The idea came to the founder, Animesh Katiyar when his law college in Delhi got two labrador puppies to help de-stress students and encourage them to attend lectures. 

He knew he was on to something brilliant when he noticed that soon, attendance had increased, students seemed to be more joyful and the overall college climate was bright.

 

Animal-assisted therapy, or pet therapy, is a proven concept which has been employed abroad for a while now. It’s known to reduce stress, anxiety, depression and pain. 

For those without a pet, just think back to the time when you played with your friend’s dog. Most probably, there was a glowing smile on your face. 🙂

What’s more, the founders say that business is booming!

Reason to move to Delhi, perhaps?
