Dogs. What more can I say, they are simply divine. I can write a whole soliloquy gushing about the beauties of dogs. Dogs are seriously great, and if you don’t think so, I’m sorry that you don’t know what true joy is in life. They are some of the best animals and pets in the world, and there’s a reason they are called man’s best friend. So here’s a short list from a dog lover about the wonderfulness of dogs.

1. They are so loyal, more so than actual human beings.

You will always know when a dog loves you and it’s an awesome thing. There is no doubt in anybody’s mind when they love you. They truly treat you like you matter and will always be there for you especially in your time of need.

2. They are so willing to play, so if you need a workout buddy, you will always have one in a dog.

But if you need to work out, a dog will get you going. You have to make sure to take your dog out on walks, which is great exercise for both your dog and for you as well. Basically, dogs’ playful needs are good for your wellbeing and are just plain fun to partake in.

3. They are literally some of the friendliest creatures.

Dogs are always looking to make friends, especially with other humans. Most dogs are always so happy to get petted and meet other humans. Honestly, it’s so sweet how excited they get, knowing they will get petted and smothered with love.

4. They are helpful creatures.

Dogs offer an array of support for others. They can be therapy dogs, guide dogs, and police dogs. They’re animals who will listen to your problems, judgment-free, and cuddle with you, no questions asked. Also, during my most stressful times, the presence and the feel of a dog is so calming and stabilizing. They know how to bring a smile to my face, and my stress just sort of seems to melt away.

5. Their sweet little faces.

You can always tell how happy they are among other emotions. Especially when their eyes get all squinty when you pet them because they love it. Dogs have some of the most expressive faces; they always look like they’re smiling and it’s the best.

All in all, Dogs are amazing animals who will love you forever and treat you the way you should be treated. I recommend everyone get a dog. Your life will definitely be happier -- it’s a fact.
