10 Doggone Truths That Make Having A Dog Better Than Having 'A Person'

Dogs are better than humans is so many different ways. Every quality we look for in a relationship is a quality that is found in a dog. You will be lucky if you find a person who possesses even half of the qualities you want and even if you do, I guarantee that a dog will make you happier than any person could.

1. They are devoted

There are times we all wish that our significant other was more devoted to us, but I have never had that problem with a dog. Dogs are loyal until the day they die, they are sometimes even a little too loyal. Arlo is hopelessly devoted to his mom and has decided that she needs assistance everywhere she goes, even in the bathroom.

2. They are more adventurous

Dogs are willing to do more adventurous things than some humans, even if it means getting a little dirty. Ike loves to go on adventures with his mom and brother and says that he will never stop adventuring even when he is an old pup.

3. They are comforting

Unlike some humans, dogs can sense when you're upset. They are always there to make you feel better no matter what. Cookie knows just what her mom needs when she is feeling sad, her cuddles.

4. They are a better date

I can guarantee that you probably won't find a man who is more of a gentleman than Mr.Archie here. Not only does he always dress his best, but he is also willing to share his favorite treat with you. Follow him on Instagram for more handsome pictures of him @archie_therescuedog

5. They are cuter

Yeah, your boyfriend or girlfriend might be cute; but are they as cute as this pooch? The only correct answer here is no. If Blake Lively were a dog this would be her. Cookie is probably the cutest dog you have/will ever see, and she knows it. If you want to see this #model in action follow her on Instagram @Cookie_catahoula or Twitter @CookieCatahoula

6. Easier to train

I don't know about you but Dufflepud is more well behaved than anyone I've ever dated. He cooks gourmet meals AND cleans up after himself, I would say he is the full package.

7. They are hard workers

If you think being a dog is easy you are wrong it is VERY hard work. Duffers and Bilbo work their tails off every day by helping their mom around the barn. According to Duffers training dogs that are 100x bigger than you is hard work. If you think his tractor is sexy follow Dufflepud and his brother Bilbo on Instagram @bilboandthepuds

8. They are easier to make happy

One of the most common arguments in a relationship is that neither party knows how to keep the other happy. You don't know what they want or they don't know what you want and it is a constant issue. Dogs are so much easier to appease. Like most dogs, this old man only wanted one thing: his mom's undivided attention...and also a treat.

9. They are easier to talk to

I don't know why, but dogs are easier to talk to than people. It might be because they can't talk or even understand what we are saying. Buster has had many people confide in him he thinks he should be a licensed therapist. He is always there to lend a helping paw and will listen to any problem you have.

10. They are better drinking buddies

Even though they can't drink they are the ultimate drinking buddies. They can't judge you, all they know is all of the sudden you're giving them a whole slice of pizza because you accidentally ordered too much.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
