5 Reasons EVERYONE Needs A Puppy STAT

Cat lovers, find another article, you won't be into this one because I'm talking DOGS!!! Man (and woman's) best friend, the ultimate lovers, most loyal companions, and quite honestly, the cutest lil guys ever!

I've always been a dog lover, and I've also always had dogs around, until at this moment. I'm at the age where I'm grown, so I'm officially out of my parents' house and living on my own, a big downfall to that - I don't get to have the "family's" (my baby) dog, Dana with me anymore.

She's my best friend, the sweetest girl ever, I could never replace her spot in my heart, BUT I do want to get another dog, of my own, very badly.

I'm Lonely and I Need a Furever Friend

Sure, I have my boyfriend and people to talk to, but they can't compare to the constant loves that a dog would give me! The bond between a dog and an owner is unbreakable.

My Mood Will Always Be Good

I have days where I just wake up and feel "blah," but if I get to wake up to puppy breath and a wagging tail, I will be happy-go-lucky all day long!

A Puppy Will Keep Me On My Toes

Sometimes I have boring days, or should I say just plain lazy days, with a puppy, that doesn't have the opportunity to happen much. Although it is nice to lay back and chill out every now and then, I fear I am doing so too much lately, and the "only" thing that can kick me into gear is a dog! *wink wink*

I Want a "Baby"

I'm too young and definitely not ready to have a child, but I want one. A better fit for me? A dog. My own little fur baby to take care of, love, teach, and watch grow. I would be the ultimate dog mom.

I Won't Take No For An Answer

I want a dog, I need a dog, and although others say that now is not the best time, I have to disagree. There is not a right or wrong time to adopt a best friend, a baby, a family member. Plus, on top of that, being told no hurts my feelings, so there's that...

To whomever it may concern, I just want to get a puppy very very badly. So please, hear out my 5, very vague reasons, and open up your heart. Think of the cute little paws, the big, sad puppy dog eyes, the endless cuddles, and JUST SAY YES!!!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
