10 Doggone Truths That Make Having A Dog Better Than Having 'A Person'
Meredith Perniciaro

Dogs are better than humans is so many different ways. Every quality we look for in a relationship is a quality that is found in a dog. You will be lucky if you find a person who possesses even half of the qualities you want and even if you do, I guarantee that a dog will make you happier than any person could.

1. They are devoted

There are times we all wish that our significant other was more devoted to us, but I have never had that problem with a dog. Dogs are loyal until the day they die, they are sometimes even a little too loyal. Arlo is hopelessly devoted to his mom and has decided that she needs assistance everywhere she goes, even in the bathroom.

2. They are more adventurous

Dogs are willing to do more adventurous things than some humans, even if it means getting a little dirty. Ike loves to go on adventures with his mom and brother and says that he will never stop adventuring even when he is an old pup.

3. They are comforting

Unlike some humans, dogs can sense when you're upset. They are always there to make you feel better no matter what. Cookie knows just what her mom needs when she is feeling sad, her cuddles.

4. They are a better date

I can guarantee that you probably won't find a man who is more of a gentleman than Mr.Archie here. Not only does he always dress his best, but he is also willing to share his favorite treat with you. Follow him on Instagram for more handsome pictures of him @archie_therescuedog

5. They are cuter

Yeah, your boyfriend or girlfriend might be cute; but are they as cute as this pooch? The only correct answer here is no. If Blake Lively were a dog this would be her. Cookie is probably the cutest dog you have/will ever see, and she knows it. If you want to see this #model in action follow her on Instagram @Cookie_catahoula or Twitter @CookieCatahoula

6. Easier to train

I don't know about you but Dufflepud is more well behaved than anyone I've ever dated. He cooks gourmet meals AND cleans up after himself, I would say he is the full package.

7. They are hard workers

If you think being a dog is easy you are wrong it is VERY hard work. Duffers and Bilbo work their tails off every day by helping their mom around the barn. According to Duffers training dogs that are 100x bigger than you is hard work. If you think his tractor is sexy follow Dufflepud and his brother Bilbo on Instagram @bilboandthepuds

8. They are easier to make happy

One of the most common arguments in a relationship is that neither party knows how to keep the other happy. You don't know what they want or they don't know what you want and it is a constant issue. Dogs are so much easier to appease. Like most dogs, this old man only wanted one thing: his mom's undivided attention...and also a treat.

9. They are easier to talk to

I don't know why, but dogs are easier to talk to than people. It might be because they can't talk or even understand what we are saying. Buster has had many people confide in him he thinks he should be a licensed therapist. He is always there to lend a helping paw and will listen to any problem you have.

10. They are better drinking buddies

Even though they can't drink they are the ultimate drinking buddies. They can't judge you, all they know is all of the sudden you're giving them a whole slice of pizza because you accidentally ordered too much.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
