Dogs. Puppies. Man's best friend. No matter what you call them, it is an indisputable fact that the human race would not be the same without our canine companions. But do we really deserve dogs? Their cute little faces, fearless loyalty, and endless positive attitudes brighten the lives of everyone they come in contact with. They love without reservation and they never question our bad life choices. We are not worthy for many, many reasons.
