10 Reasons Your Dog Is Your BFF

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at URI chapter.

1. They love you no matter what and never ever judge you

Bad hair day? Hooked up with the delivery guy? Snore in your sleep? Nothin’ but love from that little, four-legged sweetie.

2. You never have to worry about doing anything alone

They’re happy to spend homework time, bathroom time, and dinnertime with their favorite human. Especially if you’re a messy eater.

3. They’re not grossed out by your farts, feet, or pits

Because chances are your smells pale in comparison to theirs. Fart on!

4. Your favorite part of everyday is seeing each other

There’s nothing like coming home to a face of pure excitement, even when you’re only gone five minutes.

5. They have heard you sing in the shower and they still love you

Sometimes they might even try to harmonize, which doesn’t necessarily make you sound better, but it does make your own voice less audible.

6. You keep each other active and on a schedule

Even though you didn’t want to take a thirty minute walk at 6 a.m., it sure did get your day started on a high note.

7. You’re both afraid of thunderstorms 

Fear loves company, too, and everything is a little less scary with a pile of fur by your side.

8. BEST SELFIE PARTNER

Good selfie lighting doesn’t matter when you’re posing with your four legged friend; they instantly make you look better.

9.  They’re your best wingman/wingwoman

10. Millions and millions of kisses

This is the best part. Seriously. How many of your other BFFs can you makeout with?
