13 Things That All Dog Moms Can Relate To

There are two types of people in this world: those who are dog people, and then there are those who want to sit back and watch the world burn. In American culture, we love and cherish our pets. They are a member of the family and are to be treated as such.

Sometimes it can feel like we are undeserving of the unconditional love our dog gives us on a daily basis. They give enough love for multiple lifetimes, which is why taking on the responsibility of being a dog mom is so rewarding.

After all of the potty training and all of the chewed up messes, they find a place within our hearts that can never be replaced. Dogs are so special to a lot of us. If you are a dog mom, then you will be able to relate to any of these 13 things.

1. While some people are planning on when they will have their next child, you're making plans for when you will get your next puppers.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
