10 Reasons Dogs Are Better Than Boys

"The more boys I meet, the more I love my dog."

Girls love dogs. Any cute pup will cause instant swooning and baby talk. Dogs can lift spirits and make any bad day better, while boys can have the opposite effect. Here are the top five (of a million) reasons why dogs are better than boys:

1. Dogs are loyal.

You don’t have to worry about your pup texting girls behind your back or flirting with the cute new neighbor or still talking to their ex.

2. Dogs are always excited to see you.

Whether it’s been two minutes or two days, dogs always act like seeing you is the best thing in the entire universe, because to them, it is. Boys, on the other hand, do not jump up and down when they see you, which is pretty disappointing. They’re probably trying to maintain their cool rep or something, but a little excitement would be nice.

3. Dogs never cancel plans.

With a boyfriend, you may get pushed aside for his bros, the gym or even video games. *Eye-roll*

4. Dogs don’t care if you've shaved your legs or not.

Boys somehow expect girls to be smooth as a baby’s butt all the time. Do they know how much surface area that is? How much time and effort that takes? And then they have the nerve to comment about prickly legs. Luckily, dogs accept us, even in our hairy-legged glory.

5. Pups are irresistible.

In the slight chance that your doggie makes you angry, it is impossible to stay mad at them because of how cute they are. However, it is harder to forgive boys, because they tend to do idiotic things constantly. And I mean constantly.

6. Dogs never tell you no.

They are down with whatever you want to do because they just want to spend time with you.

7. All your friends love your dog.

But that’s not always the case with your long streak of questionable boyfriends.

8. Dogs don’t complain about watching chick flicks.

You want to watch "Mean Girls" for the 15th time? That's fine. Your loyal K-9 will happily cuddle up next to you and watch Regina George personally victimize everyone. A boyfriend, however, will be less enthusiastic about your choice in movie, and probably complain the whole time too.

9. Dogs make the perfect date for any occasion.

Whether it is a road trip or a trip to the beach, dogs make the perfect company, and you don't have to worry about them embarrassing you.

10. Dogs are just way cuter. This really speaks for itself.

In summary, dogs rule and boys drool.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
