My dog is hands-down my best friend. But aside from all the wonderful memories I have with my dog, owning my dog has also been incredibly rewarding because of all the lessons I have learned from him (as strange as that sounds). Here are a couple things I have picked up along the way as a dog owner that you might be able to relate to if you have a furry friend of your own.

  • There’s always a reason to be happy
  • Don’t let one bad moment ruin your day
  • Always give yourself time to recharge
  • Cherish the good times
  • Be loyal to those that love you
  • Stay close to those who make you feel all warm inside
  • The best moments are spent with those you love

What other lessons have you learned from your pet(s)?
