Man's Best Friend

There is a reason that dogs are called "mans best friend".  This morning I was not able to travel due to snow, I was home alone and no one I knew could travel either. I was sad to be alone, but wanted to go out in the snow. After sitting inside for a short period of time and watching it snow I decided it was time to venture out into the snowy outdoors. Still refusing to go alone, I was suddenly struck by the idea that the perfect companion would be my black lab. I did not think she would be happy to go out and walk on the ice, but as we walked she showed how happy she was through constant tail wagging. We went all the way around the block and she never seemed unhappy at all.
When an owner makes a dog do something a human imagines the dog would not want to do, the dog never complains. They are always just happy to serve their master no matter what. Everyday when you come home after being gone the dog will meet you at the door and be very happy to see you. When you go pick your dog up after leaving it somewhere for a week the dog is even more excited than usual to see you. You might think it would be unhappy you left, but it is not at all. Everyone should make sure they have a dog to be best friends with and never forget the unending love that they give to the family they belong to. Every family needs a dog for a little extra love!
