Ten reasons why you should have a dog

in

The dog in the photo is not my dog.

I just want to get that straight first thing.

But it’s incredible how easy it is to get along with dogs. I don’t know if that’s that case for you or for anybody. As for me, it’s easy to make friends with them.

Luna, the dog I am carrying in this photo, is a Dachshund of pure energy. She just runs away from and back to you, round and round, sniffing everything she can, with tail wagging frantically. I don’t think all dogs are like Luna, but their energy is simply greater than that of a cat, don’t you agree?

Aside from being a saturated energetic fur ball, dogs are a bundle of joy too!

Here are some reasons why you should have a dog:

  1. They bring you adventure.
  2. They teach you how to be generous.
  3. They comfort you when you are sad.
  4. They teach you how to care. (Dogs are literally babies, forever three-year-olds.)
  5. They teach you how to have fun.
  6. They demonstrate what friendship is.
  7. They exhibit loyalty.
  8. They teach you how to be brave.
  9. They show you the meaning of companionship.
  10. They teach you how to love.

Still not convinced? Check this out and see some of my journey with the dogs I’ve come to meet and know.
