"Whoever said diamonds are a girl's best friend never had a dog."

 

1. There is no greater feeling than stepping inside the door after a long day at school or work to the wagging tail of your dog, jumping for joy upon your return. 

2. Dogs keep you healthy and fit by going on walks with you and playing outside.
    
3. They have the most vivid personalities and always keep you on your toes. Whether it’s getting into mischief or doing something goofy, when dogs are around, laughter is never in short supply.
    
4. Dogs are always down to snuggle up and take a nap with you, and they couldn’t make better cuddle buddies.

5. Dogs won’t turn their back on you. Your dog would never cancel plans with you or choose someone else over you. You’re his #1 priority and that will never change! 
6. Dogs have terrible short-term memories, so they won’t remember all the weird things you’ve done around the house. Bring on the guilty pleasure Broadway tunes.
    
7. Dogs make great body guards. If there is someone your dog doesn’t trust, they’ll let you know. Your dog will protect you against any impending danger, like that vicious mailman.
    
8. You’ll never have to clean up spills, because your dog is a natural vacuum cleaner.
    

    

9. Dogs remind us to just live life. They don’t care about paying bills or stressing over tests or work. Dogs just want to have fun and be loved; people should be more like that.
    
10. Your dog will love you no matter what, and will be endlessly loyal to you. Let’s face it, your dog has seen you at your high-heeled and lipsticked best, and your sweatpants and overslept worst, but they still love you anyway.
