Why is a Dog so special to you?
Do you have a dog? Did you ever had one? Share your stories on why is having a dog so special to you?
I love having a dog. They are caring and loving.
When I feel emotional or sad they are there to comfort me.
Giving me unconditional love.
I hug them and they gives me kisses.
There is a bonding love.

Yes. I used be scared of dogs my entire life and never really cared for pets.
Then all the sudden one day in 2014 my brother brings home a puppy.
It completely changed the dynamics of my family.
It's so weird how something that can't talk can bring so much joy, love, and entertainment into the household.

Idk but for some reason i love walking down my hood because everyone has dogs and they all start barking at me and i feel so important and special walking down the street with these dogs giving me so much attention.

I haven't got a dog, no. My ex boyfriend has and I love it to pieces. I love pugs/French bulldogs too. They're just so cute.

I feel like dogs give a kind of love and affection that no human can. They are the embodiment of unconditional love, I think. I have a dog right now, and I've always loved dogs, but when we got him, I was scared because I felt like my life would change a lot, having to care for something other than myself. And it did change a lot, but in the most amazing way.  He's a part of the family now. My life wouldn't be the same without him.

They're so cute and they love unconditionally. You can make them mad, but they'll always come running back.  They're so forgiving and better than people

Yes I have a dog and me and my boyfriend are not in very good terms right now, I was just looking at her and thinking how her feelings will always be genuine and how I won't ever have to worry about if they are or not because I know she will always be here for me

Excuse the crappy photo, i need to take one of him on my phone and not my webcam but this is my dog Dixon, he was one here.
He was abused, rescued him from the shelter. His family really tortured him, starved him, he also had knots all over his back from his hair.
The minute he saw me at the shelter, they said they saw he changed since his paper had written timid and that he bit people. Right when i asked to see him, he came over to me and wouldn't leave my side and still doesn't. Now he's three and a half and i'm the happiest person to know i was the one who got him away from that. He still suffers from PTSD and food aggression at times but that's common.

It's unexplainable but I guess I agree with what everyone else posted in here. They're just... Amazing. Really are

Because a dog is the embodiment of a true friend. He'll always be there for you and will always love you.
