At family gatherings, I’m pretty sure people are more interested in petting the dog than saying hi to you. Ain't that the truth? They’re cute, they’re fluffy, and they’re friendly; traits – for the most part – that most humans do not possess. Dogs are the life of any party, and let’s be honest, they’re probably more adored than you in your household. Their cheerful greetings to you at the door after a long day can instantly make you smile and feel so at home and comfortable. I wish everyone was as loving and easygoing as dogs are.

Humans can’t do things that are socially acceptable as pets.

Here are valid some reasons why dogs are so much better than humans.

1. They’re happier than humans.

2. Eat. Sleep. Play. Repeat. (I’d always be happy, too.)

3. Dogs can’t screw up as a best friend. They are the ultimate companion.

4. Pups are always willing to cuddle. Who needs a significant other when you have a puppy?

5. They look good in collars, unlike children.

6. Dogs listen to your problems, and they don’t interrupt.

7. If they don’t like you, they bite you. No one likes passive aggressive humans anyways.

8. Dogs are protective and extremely alert. They have much better senses than people do.

9. Even if they smell, they’ll still be loved.

10. And even if they’re ugly, they’re still cute.

11. Did I mention they can’t talk?

12. They don’t judge you.

13. They’re the ultimate wingman/woman. Nothing says, “I’m datable” like having a cute dog by your side.

14. “They can lick their own butts.” – Anonymous guy I asked regarding the topic.

15. Dogs always show unconditional love.

16. They’re always loyal to you. It's not like they can make plans without you...

17. They’re not picky where they poop or pee ... public restrooms aren’t always our favorite. Imagine the grass?

18. Dogs don’t spend money on food, their owners do it for them. #Goals

19. Dogs are all selfless. Not all people are.

20. You can name them funnier names than the basic “Ashley” or “John.” Try “Chubby” and “Banjo,” which are so much cooler.

21. They don’t have to bathe every single day.

22. Or brush their hair.

23. Or brush their teeth.

24. Sounds gross, but dogs are just so carefree.

25. They don't have to drive anywhere. Personal chauffeurs for life.

26. People voluntarily play with their hair all the time.

27. Their biggest trouble is having an itch.

28. People only stay mad at dogs for like two minutes.

29. Dogs don't have to work or have any responsibilities.

30. Oh, and best of all, dogs don’t have college tuition.
