7 Ways Your Dog is Your Best Friend
Laura Drechsler
Dogs have a way to be there for you when you need it the most and be the best friend that you deserve. There's a reason why people call them a man's best friend.

1. They Sense When You Are Upset

Dogs can sense if you had a bad day, or if you simply are just in a bad mood. They know exactly how to be there for you and put a smile on your face. Whether it is the puppy dog face, asking you to rub their tummy, or just cuddling up with you, they never fail at making your day better.

2. They Eat Your Leftovers

Dogs have the biggest appetite. They are more than happy to help you finish your plate. They might cry or sit next to you while you ate waiting for their share of your meal. Your food never has to go to waste.

3. They Represent Your School More Than You Do

Your dogs are your biggest fans. They will confidently wear any ridiculous college apparel you put them in and cuddle up in all your fuzzy college blankets that you have laying around.

4. They Model For You

Dogs love to pose for your pictures, videos, or Snapchats and they are very good at it. Every picture is cuter than the one before. They will get you the most likes on Instagram.

5. They Are Excited To See You

When they see you they might start barking and run towards you while shaking their tail. No one will ever be as happy to be with you as your dog. Again, they really are your #1 fan.

6. They Sleep Beautifully

They fall asleep in crazy positions all over your house. They make for hilarious pictures that will make you laugh for many years to come. You might wonder how their sleeping position could possibly be comfortable.

7. They Are The Hardest Goodbye When You Go To School

You can't imagine not having your dog by your side at school. Every time food falls, no one is there to eat it. No one is waiting for you when you get back from class with excitement. No one will snuggle with you. And your biggest fan is sitting in home miles away alone.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
