10 Pros And Cons All Dog Owners Have Experienced

I have always wanted to own a dog because there are so many good reasons to get one. Nevertheless, when I finally got my dog, I realized that not everything is perfect. However, I would still not change a thing. So, here is a list of the pros and cons of having a dog.

1. Your most loyal friend

2. Having to clean up...Poop


Yup! Poop and any other disaster they make. The bigger your dog the more it poops...oops!

3. They are always happy


Imagine having a long day and getting home to see your dog jumping all around because he/she is so happy to see you.

4. Having long walks

Yes, thanks to them you get to do some exercise and enjoy the beauty of nature.

5. Training

You really have to put in some time if you want them to learn how to behave.

6. You get to play dress-up

I know that not all dogs like to wear clothes, but when they do, they look so cute.

7. Taking care of them

You know it is not easy to keep up with all the things that your dog needs--for example, grooming, vaccinations, training, and feeding them appropriately.

8. Companionship

They are always there for you, specially when you need them the most.

9. They constantly want attention

They really do not like to be alone.

10. They need space

If your house is small or have any more pets, then this may be a problem.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
