Hi guys,

You two are probably super confused on why I keep leaving for long amounts of time. I am sorry. I don't think your brain capacity will understand that I have to live 2 hours away from you guys to go to college. You guys are dogs. You know? I have to treat you as such.

But although I am gone don't worry, I have devised multiple plans to sneak you into my dorm room. But my roommate keeps telling me that it's "against the rules" and our room is "too small for two dogs." She doesn't get it. Ugh.

Mom told me you guys were acting weird when I left. Is it because you have to watch my parents awful movie choices and because they go to bed at 7 pm and you guys have no one to hang out with? I am sorry I left you with them. Completely my fault.

When you leave for college everyone says that you miss your pets the most. That's the most truthful thing anyone has ever said to me. I miss just chilling and having you guys snuggled around me. I miss you guys barking at 2 pm on the dot every day for an hour. I miss you guys thinking you are big and tough although you both collectively weigh 35 pounds. Dogs are just the best.

You really can't argue with me on this. I will fight you on this. It's not a subject I am easily persuaded in. Actually, I am not easily persuaded in general but if you come up to me after reading this and tell me you're a cat person, feel free to never talk to me again. It's just unethical. Anyways, I don't care what kinda pet you have. This letter is for my dogs. Even though they can't read...

To give some background to the humans reading this my dogs are small and stupid and random and one wear turquoise pants because he has epilepsy and the other one doesn't have anything goofy going on with him. But basically what I am trying to convey is that they are the best. Whether they are mistaking my socks for other dogs or sleeping all day on the couch. I would rather hang with these nonhuman, illiterate, goofballs than hangout with anyone else. I feel like everyone should feel the same way.

Well, I felt the need to rant about how much I miss my dogs and I am not done yet. Thank you doggies for being by my side during every sick day, watching every possible free movie on on demand with me, watching the family harry potter marathons with us, staying up until I got home every night, comforting me when I cried, walking the neighborhood walk with me on Thanksgiving, making me smile every moment of the day and for growing up with me.

Flynn and Sport, my friends like you guys more than they like me but I take more pictures of you guys then them so HA. Also, I am pretty sure you are higher than me on the family roster too. I can't complain. The last 14 years of too furry companions being weird with me were exactly what I needed. I miss you guys but I will be home soon, don't cha worry.

To my dogs that will never see/read or understand this post.

From, The person that feels compelled to talk about how much they love their dogs to a bunch of people on a website because she thinks it's the most relatable thing ever. Even though it's probably only relatable to a small population of people that are as genuinely obsessed with their dogs as she is with hers.

P.S. This one is for my mom... Hey, mom! Can we get a puppy? 3 dogs isn't that big of a difference. Please consider. Cool.
