I've had my fair share of furry little four-legged friends over the years. Lately, I've been missing having my special little pal waiting at home for me with their rapidly wagging tail and dopey little face. I've been trying to convince my parents to let me bring home a pup for ages now and I'm hoping this list of all the reasons dogs rule will help support my case.

1. Every time you come home they'll greet you at the door like they haven't seen you in years.

No matter how long you've been gone, they are always so happy to see you.

2. You won't find a more loyal companion than a pup

Giphy

3. They never argue about what to watch on TV.

They're happy to just cuddle up on the couch next to you.

4. Pups know that it's all about the simplest things in life.

Giphy

It doesn't take much to make them happy.

5. Dogs are the ultimate workout pal.

Giphy

They're always up for a long walk/jog around the neighborhood.

6. They always know when something is wrong

Giphy

And are willing to smother you in endless amounts of kisses and a good old fashioned snuggle.

7. Your pooch will keep your bed warm in those cold winter months.

Giphy

It's like having your own personal space heater.

8. Slobbery dog kisses are some of the best kisses.

Giphy

9. Pups know nothing but unconditional love for their owner.

Giphy

When you think about it, they're actually way too precious for this world.

10. Hanging out with your little doggo friend is one of the best ways to relieve stress

Giphy

Especially after a long work day.

11. Dogs are super protective of their owners

Giphy

So you'll know that they'll always have your back.

12. Pups encourage us to get out there and explore.

Giphy

They're curious little creatures that will fill your life with adventure.

13. They're guaranteed to bring laughter and smiles to your everyday life.

Giphy

14. You can dress your doggo up for the holidays.

Giphy

Santa hats, heart shaped sunglasses, New Years hats, you name it.

15. Let's be honest, they're better selfie takers than most of the people you know.

Giphy

16. Their positive attitude is infectious.

Giphy

17. Even when they do something wrong, they're adorable.

Giphy

I mean how can you stay mad at that face?

18. Pups teach patience and responsibility.

Giphy

19. I mean nothing against cats, but pups do their business outside

Giphy

Which is a huge plus, in my opinion.

20. They'll improve your social life.

Giphy

C'mon, we're all guilty of talking to someone on the street just to get a chance to pet their pup.

21. Dogs will listen to anything you have to say

Giphy

And the best part is that they won't judge you.

22. Pups are super smart, so you can teach them to do all sorts of cool tricks.

Giphy

23. Their favorite thing to do is to make you happy.

Giphy

Imagine coming home to someone whose sole desire is to make you happy.

24. Pups make the best vacuum cleaners.

Giphy

I mean have you seen how fast they'll snatch up spilled snacks?

25. Have you seen them?

Giphy

Just look at that face.

26. Dogs are the best friend that anyone could have.

Giphy

Their love and loyalty never expires so honestly, what other reason do you need?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
