12 Reasons Every College Student Needs A Dog

In This Article:

Dogs are man's best friend for a reason. They're loyal, loving, playful and an endless source of happiness. With the amount of crazy college has packed into every day, here are some reasons I believe every college student needs a dog in their life.

1. They greet you at the door.

Because there's nothing than better than opening your door and your dog jumping all over you because they're so excited you're home.

2. They're always happy.

How can you not be happy after seeing this face?

3. They give you an excuse to be active.

Every college student knows how challenging it is to convince yourself to go work out, but if you have to go walk your dog every day you'll be getting your work out in and making sure your dog doesn't turn your living room into the bathroom.

4. They'll never judge you.

They don't care if you haven't showered in two days or if you're on your fourth glass of wine. They'll still love you just the same.

5. They're always down for a nap.

6. They actually think you're cool and they genuinely want to hang out with you.

Why would you choose to hang out with anyone else when your dog already thinks you're the coolest person alive?

7. If you don't feel like moving from the couch, they'll lay there with you all day.

They like cuddling just as much as you. So turn on your latest Netflix show and get ready for a relaxing day with your best friend.

8. They'll comfort you.

Whether you just failed a test or you're fighting with a friend, your pup will be there to comfort you through it all.

9. They'll make you laugh.

He just wants to go swimming!

10. They'll make you very popular with your friends.

I mean, they may start choosing to hang out with you just because of the dog, but at least they're hanging out with you.

11. They'll always be your best friend.

And the only person you'd share your hot dog with.

12. They love you unconditionally.

No matter what, your dog will always love you.

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.
