A lecturer named Josh Billings once said, “A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.” To me, that is the most accurate representation of a dog that I have ever heard. Dogs are the most selfless, lovable, cuddly creatures that deserve an unbelievable amount of love. I cherish the moments I have with my dogs and I love them unconditionally, but there are others who aren’t as amiable. I have a couple of neighbors who never allow their dogs to come inside, no matter the circumstances, and that hurts my soul to it’s very core.

I think that time playing together with our dogs is crucial for bonding time. Bonding with your dog and creating that relationship is so important, I think, when it comes to raising a dog and making sure their life is the best it can be. So, it’s unfortunate to know that while some families are enjoying time together, their dog is out there wishing they could be a part of those special
