10 Reasons Why My Dog is My Best Friend

Most people are obsessed with their dog and I am one of those people.

My dog and I are inseparable from each other. Being away from home I am constantly missing my dog or asking my parents to send me photos of my dog. My dog is my best friend and my life would be completely flipped upside down without her. I can not imagine my life without my dog.

1. Happy to see me every time I walk through the door

Whether it has been months, days or even just a few seconds anytime I walk through the door my dog is so happy to see me.

She always jumps on me and starts running around. She licks me non stop and is always beyond excited that I walked through the door.

2. Follows me around everywhere I go

It doesn't matter where I am going my dogs is always right by feet. Even just from getting up from watching TV and walking to the kitchen for a quick second my dogs still follows me. When I stop walking she stops and when I start again then she keeps following.

3. Cuddles with me

Whether I am in bed or sitting on the couch I know my dog will always cuddle with me or at least sit and hang out with me. It is one of the best feeling just looking right next to me and seeing my dog sitting there.

4. Always can put a smile on my face

Dogs always do the funniest and silliest things. No matter what type of mood I am in my dog always makes me smile.

Whether I am happy or sad I know my dog will make any situation better and brighten my day. Whenever I just look at my dog it makes me smile.

5. Always listens to me

Whether I want her to come or I just want to talk about anything my dog is always all ears.

The best part about talking to your dog and that they will never judge you for anything you say and they are always listening. I can talk forever and my dog will still be sitting right next to me.

6. Sleeps with me

Whether it is early in the morning or late at night I can always count on my dog to be in my bed. Whenever I wake up in the morning it is the best to have her there laying in bed with me.

7. Always loyal

My dog is always there no matter what. From following me around or always listening my dog will never leave me. I never feel alone because I know I have my dog. My dog will always be by my side.

8. Knows when I am sad


Somehow and some way my dog always knows when there is something bothering me and when I am not acting like myself.

My dog always cheers me up whenever I am down and can always brighten my dog and make me smile. My dog always just wants me to be happy.

9. ‘Cleans’ up my messes

Anytime I drop food on the floor I know it will get cleaned up. I always call for my dog and next thing I know the food is gone.

If my dog is right with me when I drop something it is cleaned up in the first 15 seconds of me dropping it. She is always there to clean up after me.

10. Loves me no matter what

No matter what my dog will always love me.

Even after I get mad or yell my dog still is so happy and still wants to be around me. My dog will always be my best friend. My dog is always so happy to see me and is always so loving.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
