8 Reasons Why Dogs Make The Best Pets

If you have dogs as pets and don't show them off then do you really have them? Some can argue cats are better pets to have, but if you're like me then you know how untrue that is. Dogs make the best pets and the best friends. I have two and take about a hundred pictures of them a day, literally. They're my best friends and I wouldn't trade them for the world. I hope you can agree too.

1. They're the best cuddle buddies.


Need someone to snuggle and watch netflix with? Just call your dogs over! They will keep you warm. Who needs a boyfriend when you have dogs to cuddle with?

2. They're excited to see you at all times.

The best part about coming home is seeing your dogs reaction, no matter if its been 10 minutes or 10 hours. I love when they jump on me and lick my face over and over again like I'm never allowed to leave them again.

3. They make you happy.

This one's an obvious one. Of course, my dogs make me happy. Whenever I'm upset all they have to do is jump on my bed and kiss my face and I already start feeling better.

4. They make you feel like a kid again.

We all catch ourselves speaking to our dogs with high-pitched voices, the only way we ever talk to them. Whenever they wanna play, we can't help but give in to their cuteness. Especially when they come over and put their ball right on our laps. Running around like a maniac with them makes me feel like a kid again (the good days.)

5. They never run out of energy.

Why is it that we get tired out easily while playing with them and they never do? Dogs could play for hours, I swear.

6. They like to eat just as much as you do.

I swear me and my dogs could eat all day.

7. They're your best friend - the one you can always talk to.

I know dogs can't respond (would be cool if they could,) but they're always there to listen to you.

8. They're the cutest!

Just look at that face! Dogs are so cute!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.
