I've only been home for about an hour but I already realized life is 10x better when your best friend is a dog.
Without a doubt, my dog is one of the most interesting dogs I have ever encountered. He chews the ears off of his toys within minutes and for some reason feels that anything made of paper or cardboard is the most delicious snack. His favorite spot on the couch is the one I just stood up from. Even though there are many little grievances, none of them compare to the sweet moments when he cuddles next to me on the couch or when he plays around in the snow.
While I am at school, there is nothing I want more than to just lay on the couch with my puppy and watch a movie. When assignments became too much and it felt like I was being pulled in a million directions, this little man is who I wanted to confide in the most. I could tell him anything because the best part is that he can’t say anything back or to anyone. At first, I thought it was weird when people would talk to their dog as if they were a person, but now I get it.
I just wanted to take a minute to say thanks to (wo)man’s best friend, Wrigley Orange-Ribbon O’Toole.
