1. They have unconditional love for you.

They didn't get the nickname "man's best friend" for no reason. A dog will love you endlessly with no strings attached. You pet them, they love you, it's easy.

2. They will never get bored of your company.

The most exciting part of my day is walking through the door when I get home and seeing my two dogs. It seems as if they have been waiting all day for me to come home. How sweet is that? I made their day just by walking through the door. How many people can you say love you like your dog does?

3. They are simple.

Eat. Sleep. Play. Those are the only things that go through their mind. They don't stress over the small stuff like humans do. They don't worry if their hair looks good or what color to paint their nails. They only worry about the important stuff.

4. They understand you.

No matter what your dilemma is a dog can make you feel better. Finals week, headache, maybe just a little sad, find a puppy and I guarantee it will improve your well being.

5. They are always happy.

There is no such thing as mood swings when it comes to dogs. There is only one mood for dogs and it is happy. Their constant positivity and energy is contagious. You might be in a bad mood but a dog can make up for it with just one look.

6. They listen to your problems with no complaints.

Dogs love to hear people rant. Yeah, they have no idea what you are saying but yet they understand you. Whatever that person did to ruin your day your dog understands and they support you 100%. Plus you are free to rant to a dog and there is no possible way they are going interrupt you.

7. There is no judgment and they are completely loyal to you.

They will never tell you that you did something wrong because in their eyes you're perfect. People play such a big role in dog's lives. Dogs see their owners as family and they rely on us.

8. They are always up for a run/walk.

Who needs a workout partner when you have a dog? A dog is always up for a walk/run. Any type of activity with their owner, they are all in. With dogs its so much easier because there's no coordinating, you just grab the leash and go.

9. They don't hold a grudge.

Maybe you might have done something to upset your pup but no worries. Just give it a few minutes and you two are back to normal. There's no awkward conversations and apologies it just goes right back to where you were. This is because no one gets you quite like your dog.

10. They appreciate the small things.

Like I said earlier "dogs are simple". They don't need parties or celebrations. They just want a treat or maybe an ice cube every once in a while. Showing love to you dog is so much easier than to a human. All you have to do is scratch behind their ear and throw a tennis ball.
