10 Reasons Your Dog Is Actually, And Quite Literally, Your Best Friend
Kirsten Ocwieja

For all those dog lovers out there, the following piece is for you and your special pooch that is always there to snuggle up with you on your good and bad days.

1. They are all ears whenever you just want to talk.

Sometimes, listening is the best help that you can give. There is no better listener than your dog; they get it. Life is "ruff" and sometimes you just need someone to vent to. Also, you can trust them to never tell anyone your secrets.

2. There is never a time when you walk in the door and they are not excited to see you.

Who does not love being greeted by a big or small furry friend jumping all over your legs? Seriously, there is no better greeting if you ask me.

3. They are always there to take goofy selfies with you.

Who does not love a funny selfie? Even better, a funny selfie with your pooch. It just proves that you two are the best of friends that your dog is not only there to listen to you, but also make you smile.

4. Not only do they participate in silly pictures, but also serious ones when you are trying to capture that perfect ~gram~.

Seriously, you and your pooch truly bring out your inner beauties of each other ... Smile!

5. They have seen you naked and did not get scared.

Thanks for never judging me or running away.

6. Whether it is winter, spring, summer or fall, you can always count on fun activities with them.

Whether it is running through the snow, jumping in leaves, smelling flowers or even splashing in their own mini pool ... the day is always a blast with them.

7. Not only are you the No. 1 fan of your favorite sports team, but naturally, so are they!

Airbus ice hockey edition!

8. They are always hungry when you are hungry.

Thanks for sharing that bowl of ice cream with me and making me feel less guilty. Seriously ... diet starts tomorrow!

9. They are your best workout buddy.

Hey, bikini body season doesn't just apply to me, it applies to you, too, so you're coming on a walk with me.

10. They are always there to give you the love and attention that you deserve.

Your pooch is never going to leave your side and will always be there to lick the tears away and put a smile on your face on a bad day. Thanks for being my best friend, dogg-o!
