Whoever said dogs are a “man’s best friend” is not kidding. No matter what, dogs are always there for us and we do not deserve these beautiful creatures. Thank you, dogs, for being a great friend to us. 2016 may have been ruff, but having you there lessened the blow. Here’s to dogs everywhere, we love you and we are thankful for you to be here for another year.

1. Thank you for always greeting me with much excitement at the front door

It's the little things that you do that make everything so worth it.

2. Thank you for being silly

You keep me young. I am thankful for that.

3. Thank you for always wanting to cuddle.

This may only be my dog, but I feel like we don't deserve these creatures for gracing us with their greatness.

4. Thank you for being the star of the family

The family might be a disappointment, but your dog will never be.

5. Thank you for eating all my leftovers

You da real one, Taz.

6. Thank you for being my rock

I work hard for my degree to make sure my dog children and future dog children will have a good and plentiful life.

7. Thank you for putting up with all the photos.

My dog in particular is photogenic, I just can't help myself. Look at my little model.

8. And the costumes.

Not all heros wear capes.

9. Thank you for listening to me ramble, rant and complain about boys, life, school, and more boys.

It's the little things you do.

10. Thank you for being my best friend.

I don't know what I would do without you.
