If there's one thing girls love more than boys, it's cute dogs. Something about their adorableness just makes us all go wild and want to take in every dog we see. When boys are usually out breaking hearts and playing games, dogs are at home, waiting to give you love and waiting for you to give them belly rubs. It has been scientifically proven (by me and my dog Riley), that dogs are better than boys in many ways.

1. They listen to us (mostly).

Let's face it, girls. We know that 90% of the time, our guys aren't listening to us, and if they are, they give us answers we don't want to hear. Dogs are always interested in what we have to say. I can sit with my dog and talk to him about anything, and he will sit there and listen to me, even though he probably doesn't understand a word. And he understands the word "no" than most boys.

2. Their extreme happiness when we come home.

There's nothing better than coming home to a pup who's so excited you're home that they just jump all over you and get slobber everywhere. We never get tired of seeing our dogs. We wish guys were that excited to see us.

3. Their soft, fluffy cuddling.

Let's face it, cuddling with a soft, warm puppy is way better than cuddling with a guy who's muscles make it feel like you're cuddling with a rock. (Both are nice, though.)

4. Puppy kisses.

There's just nothing better than puppy kisses, period. Not even boyfriend kisses.

5. They will follow us anywhere and do whatever with us.

Most times, if you have a guy, you have to beg him to come somewhere with you. With dogs, they are always willing to go anywhere with you, as long as they are with you. My pup has made many car rides very entertaining. Plus, you get to play whatever music you want, and they won't complain like a guy would.

6. Their unconditional love and devotion to us.

A guy can say he will love you forever, but that doesn't mean he means it. They don't have to be there your whole life. Dogs are always there. From day one, until the end, your dog will love you every day. There is no better feeling than knowing that you are there for your dog throughout their whole life. They will love you forever, and be there with you through everything.
