There are almost 90 million dogs in America. “Everyone thinks they have the best dog, “ wrote W.R. Purche. “And none of them are wrong.”

In honor of everyone who knows the joy of those nearly 90 million canines, I have jotted down the ten reasons why I think we should be grateful for our remarkable furry, four-legged pals.

Please send on a comment for anything I have forgotten! Thanks!

1. They Don’t Judge Us

Dogs don’t care about the following things: what we look like, how much we weigh, whether we won the lottery, or who we voted for in the midterms. From us, they just want some love and attention.

2. They Are Always Happy to See Us

Dogs LOVE when we come home. Every single day. Rain or snow or, they are there to greet us with the utmost excitement. Who doesn’t love that kind of welcome?
