To me it is impossible to not stop dead in my tracks, stare and say, "Awwww" while reaching out for the fur ball and asking the stranger, "Can I pet your dog?" Yeah, I am that girl, but what I am not is ashamed of it and here's why:
1. No matter how bad or long your day is, you have a cute little puppy waiting to jump on you when you return to it.
You may be having the worst day of your life, but just take a moment and think, the second you get home your dog will be waiting for you. Once it sees you, it will greet you in a way that will make your horrible day seem not so bad.
2. It always will find a way to put a smile on your face.
Whether it is chasing a squirrel, barking at its reflection, or doing a cool trick, you can always count on your pup for doing something funny or super awesome to make you smile from cheek to cheek.
3. Dogs are automatic vacuums.
Your dog will always be there to pick up the pieces -- of the food that you dropped. You will never have to worry about a quick clean up, because all you have to do is holler at your puppy and it will be there to help you out.
4. The perfect cuddle buddy.
Whether your dog is big or small, if you ever need a snuggle buddy your dog would gladly be their for you, because they love to be loved just as much as you do.
5. One word: puppies.
Puppies are just about the cutest things on this planet. A life without puppies is not really a life at all. With their little ears and paws, how could you not instantly fall in love with a puppy?
6. A rapper named himself after a dog.
Snoop Dogg obviously loves dogs so much that he added an extra "g" to the name. Snoop may be the ultimate Dawg, but his name was inspired by a great animal and only gives yet another reason to love dogs.
7. A true friendship.
A dog waits all day for its owner to return home. It knows when something is wrong and tries to make its people feel better. Dogs can be protective or help a human out in a life-or-death situation. Dogs can make you smile without even trying and take a piece of your heart. It is not a lie when someone says, "A dog is a man's best friend," because that is exactly what it is.
