Okay, my dog's name is Stella Bell Nudo and I love her with all of my heart. I doubt my life would be as good as it is without her. When I didn't have a dog. I would see those ads at Wrigley Field where it was a man and his bulldog. They were both wearing cubs merchandise, and the caption to the right of the photo just said, "Man's Best Friend." I didn't believe a dog could have such a significant impact on my life, but I was SO wrong. She is my best friend, always. She is the most reliable thing in my life. When I come home, she trots to the door with her tail wagging right behind her. She makes me the person I am today. She keeps me in a good mood and she gets me out of bad ones. I never thought that dogs really had a 6th sense, but they do. She seems to always be there when I need her or when I feel lonely, depressed, or anxious. She is the best thing because her heart is so pure and her eyes twinkle like she has seen the world. She always likes to cuddle and I feel as if the nights she sleeps at the foot of my bed are the nights where I sleep the best. Dogs are great because you, the owner, are the only things they know through their entire lives and you mean the most to them. I really love my dog because she makes me feel like I am something bigger than myself. She makes me realize how much of a difference in others lives I make. She helps me calm down when I freak out and she is the CUTEST. She makes me feel like I do have purpose in life. They say that dogs are a reflection of their owner's personality. I can only hope that this is the case. She lights up my life as well as the lives around me. One can only hope to have that quality. I love to spend time with her and I know the feeling is mutual. She seems to be the happiest around me and I feel the happiest around her. I could not fathom a life without a companion as caring and as loyal as a dog. They can truly change someone for the better and they are the most beautiful things in this world. They bring people together and they are so perfect and pure. I wouldn't trade her for anything in this world. I want to make her as happy as she makes me. I also want to give her the world because that is what I feel like I have gained due to me having a best friend as great as her.
Stay happy, be nice,
Joseph P. Nudo
