But all dogs are not good for security are they?

They are adorable and funny and cuddly and insanely happy when you get home. And they don't protest if you post them on social media 😂

They are loyal, and honest, and keep your secrets. They don't play headgames or jerk you around (except sometimes, when they see a squirrel, but they're working on it!). They don't mind waking up in the night because you had a bad dream, or need to go to the bathroom (again).

They're pure. Their love is pure. Their affection is pure. You can give them treats to say thank you, but even if you don't, they're still going to love you. They want you to be happy (even if they sometimes have weird ways of trying to facilitate this).

Dogs are the best friends.

Because they don’t like their kids. They defend dog’s rights while not lifting a finger for their kids.

20:57 many have said this IRL. A man's kid said growing up "dad buys good meat for the dog and we get other meat it tastes good but it's not the fancy stuff that the dog gets."

Simple solution. Don't give your dog meat, I don't. My dog is well taken care of my kids are more.

I'd feed you to my dog, but he'd just lick you.
And hopefully not come down with your ignorance.

Dogs are like the kids some people didn't have (for whatever reason that's not important).

Yep even a little terrier is yapping away guarding his elderly neighbor, and he yaps when he expects the elderly woman to take him out on a walk - same time every day.

When working in office, you would get the regulars who would come down from a different floor to use the bathrooms on your floor which were located across fom your office. You knew when Glen came to that floor, it was almost lunch time. It's the same working from home having a neighbor's dog bark consistenty for 2 minutes at the same mid day time to what sounds like a demanding bark to his owner to take him on a walk.

Point is for humans to socialize with other humans who also have dogs.

To teach my kids about love and responsibility and also about death. Death of a pet is often the first loss they’ll experience

We had a big dog and 2 cats. We now only have one cat. It feels lonely.
