Here's a really interesting article:
How dogs forge a bond with Rio's homeless that is life saving
It examines these relationships in Rio because that city has such a large homeless population - both of humans and dogs. Really interesting stuff, but one thing caught my attention most: that in studies that have been done on this subject, it's been found that dogs who are attached to homeless people are actually healthier and happier than dogs who live in houses with humans.
( I found that thought fascinating... )
