12 Reasons Why Humanity Should Be So Grateful For Dogs

What did we ever do to deserve dogs? If you're like me, your voice goes to some ungodly high pitch and you make up words that come out of nowhere when you pet a dog. And no matter how much you try to contain it, it's nearly impossible when you see a dog in public. Lately, there has been a debate about whether or not dogs are better than cats. Rest assured that dogs are the better companion.

1. Puppies!

How can you not like puppies? The puppy breath, the flimsy limbs, the big tummies, the hyper play time, and the cute cuddles. I would die if I had the chance to play with these two for an hour.

2. Dogs in Clothes


This is everything. Did you see how chill the dog looked after being dressed? Like yeah, I know, I'm a bada**. Also, puppies in onesies are the cutest things ever.

3. The Cuddles

I love when dogs get all lovey dovey and cuddly. It's probably my favorite thing to go home, sit on the couch, and have my big dog think he's a lap dog.

4. They are hilarious

Dogs are funnier than most humans I know. Like, for instance, how they go from 0 to 100, from sleeping in their bed to sprinting around the house for no reason.

5. Nothing but personality

I've never met any dog that was similar to another, personality-wise. The character of a dog is everything.

6. They are a personal vacuum

Once I moved away for college, I missed being able to drop food and have my dogs come running to me within seconds. I have now invested in a broom, but I'm sure having a personal puppy is so much better.

7. Loyalty

These little adorable guys are always there for you, helping you do the most random things at the most random times. This is love.

8. The Head Tilt


The cuteness overload is so much. I can't deal with how adorable head tilts are. Once you find what tilts your dog's head, you will not stop. It's the sweetest thing.

9. They are not only dogs but fish as well


Dogs that swim are probably the cutest thing. Look at this cute little guy. Part cuteness, part dog, part fish.

10. Great with Children


Instead of hiring a nanny for your future children, have your dog watch your kids. They can do it all! If your kids are big enough, you also have a free mini horse as well.

11. Their guilty faces


Denver the Lab is known to make the best guilty faces. However, dogs make the most adorable guilty faces, that make you feel bad, want to apologize, and give them hugs and kisses and treats and just cuddle.

12. The kisses

They are so presh. Dog kisses (especially puppy kisses) are the best thing known to mankind. If that's not love, I'm not sure what is.

So, to end this debate, dogs in fact are the superior companion animal. They're just big, fat, furry balls of love and personality. They aren't just animals, they're friends, family, and a personal alarm clock. They hold much more of a meaning than just an animal in your home. Have you ever come home from a regular day and had your dog hyper and excited to see you? They are so excited to see that their human has come back to give them love and attention. Their world just came back from hours of absence. You're their world, and the least we can do is make them a part of ours.

If you are ever interested in dog or a puppy always look at adopting at your local humane society first. I'm pawsitivley sure you will fall in love.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
