Why Dogs are the Best

There is no group of people I pity more than those that have never had the love of a dog in their life. Dogs are better than humans ever could be. They have an unconditional love for everyone and everything. As long as you treat them right, they will never show you anything but love. They’re always there to comfort you when you need them, and even though they haven’t said a single word to you, you feel a connection to them as if they’re your best friend in the world. Nothing can compare to that feeling when you get home from a long day and get a warm, energetic greeting full of pure love. It really just takes the stress right out of life. Part of the reason we love dogs so much, I think, is that we know that they could never betray us or use us or intentionally do us harm in any way. If evil is inflicting pain just for the sake of inflicting pain, then dogs are purely good. They know no other way than to be good, and they could never even learn another way of life. Dogs represent everything pure, joyful, and innocent. They are our best companions, and I couldn’t see a way of life without them. Obviously I’m very partial to dogs since I’ve only had dogs as pets, but let me tell you that once you have to live without them, you understand the joy they bring you. So I’d recommend that anyone that needs a whole filled in their soul and that can take care of one, buy a new best friend! It really will make you happier.
