The numerous health benefits of pet ownership include lower blood pressure, reduced risk of heart disease, stress reduction, and decreased rates of anxiety and depression. Research also shows that being exposed to pets can help prevent allergies in children and build immunity. The campaign features humorous videos, smart social media posts, and other assets that veterinarians can share with their clients to explain the health benefits of the human\u2013animal bond.<\/p>\n<p>\u25a0 To learn more about The Pet Effect and download the campaign materials to share with others, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ThePetEffect.org\/veterinarian\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ThePetEffect.org\/veterinarian<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>New Line of Disinfectants Launched<a href=\"https:\/\/todaysveterinarypractice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/04\/T1705C01Fig04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-figure_img wp-image-13042 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/todaysveterinarypractice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/04\/T1705C01Fig04-263x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"263\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/navc.sitepreview.app\/todaysveterinarypractice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/04\/T1705C01Fig04-263x300.jpg 263w, https:\/\/navc.sitepreview.app\/todaysveterinarypractice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2017\/04\/T1705C01Fig04.jpg 526w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 263px) 100vw, 263px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Neogen has introduced its line of COMPANION disinfecting products specifically formulated for the effective cleaning and disinfection of veterinary practices, animal care facilities, and animal laboratories.
