Dogs have always been considered man's best friend. But what makes them so special? Dogs are a unique animal that display great amounts of loyalty and continual love. They are fluffy little (sometimes large) balls of fur that love you unconditionally. I mean how could you not love them back?

They will snuggle with you when you are sick, sad, or anything in between

And trust me, those snuggles will cure even the deepest of wounds.

They always know how to cheer you up

From making a funny face to giving you some extra love, they are always there when you need them.

Dogs always get excited when you walk through the door

Their tails start wagging, sometimes taking their butt with them while they bark in excitement because they haven't seen you in a couple of hours and can't wait to spend time with you. Dogs make you feel like a superstar and they are your paparazzi.

They love you no matter what

If you ever mess up, they have no idea. Forget to take them for a walk one afternoon? Don't worry, they'll know that you'll make it up to them with some extra treats later.

They never get mad at you or start a fight

There is never any drama with dogs and that is what makes them the best. They'll even protect you sometimes if they see something that they don't like. Although they don't understand English, you seem to talk to them anyway like they do and they are always the most patient about it.

Dogs are never in bad moods

I mean just look at that face.

They are always loyal

They are a constant in your life, always sitting on their favorite spot in the house waiting for you to come over and hang out.

While they may only be a part of your life, you are all of theirs. Love them with all of your heart because of how much they do for you and how much joy they bring to your life. Whether you may always see it or not, they are your absolute best friend.
