May sound very cliche, but a lot of people say that dogs are man's best friend. In my case, this is entirely too true for many reasons. Here's why:
1. He's always there for me.
Dogs have this amazing ability to know when to comfort and when to leave someone alone. He's perfect at knowing when to be there for me and is always there when I need. He never fails to be my tissue when I cry.
2. He gives me endless snuggles.
Day or night, he loves to snuggle. Even if he doesn't want to snuggle, he still lets me squeeze him tight.
3. His happiness makes me happy.
His goofy habits, seeing him run around with friends, playing with new toys and seeing him smile make me smile.
4. He loves Cheetos and Netflix as much as I do.
He will binge watch Once Upon a Time with me and eat an entire bag of Cheetos with me, or any snack that I'm eating. He loves popcorn too.
5. He loves to go on adventures with me.
Anywhere I want to go, I just have to say, "Wanna go for a ride?" and he's all about it.
6. He takes care of me.
He is a great alarm system, vacuum, garbage disposal and Band-Aid. He lets me know when someone is here, eats all the food I drop and licks all my boo boo's.
7. He is fashionable and loves it.
A new bandanna or shirt is so exciting to him and he rocks any outfit I buy him without any complaints. He's always festive and the star of the show at family events because of it.
8. My retail therapy shopping consists of Bark Boxes and dog toys.
Seeing him happy makes me happy and I spend more money shopping for him than I do myself. He's friends with the mail man, because chances are that package is for him.
9. He's a great listener.
Those giant ears catch everything I have to say. He never talks back, unless of course he is hungry.. He listens to my complaints and stories. He is the best at keeping secrets too.
10. He's always excited to see me, regardless of how much time we spend together.
I could leave for a minute and walk back in the door and he's super excited to see me. A minute feels like forever for him and he always greets me with hugs and tons of kisses.
Although my dog is a crazy, pain in the butt 99% of the time, he is my best friend. He never fails to make me happy or let me down.
Thank you for being my best friend, Tango.
