Top Ten Reasons to Get A Dog:
10. Automatic vacuum cleaner and dish washer! Your helpful
canine will always be willing to lick every surface clean,
so you don’t have to. Whether you drop your bite of
chicken onto the dining room floor, leave extra crumbs on
the counter, or just don’t feel like washing your
plate—call for Fido—he never fails to satisfy!
9. Watchdog and dependable doorbell. Think about it, you’ll
always know exactly when anything—from a pigeon to
the weekly dump truck-- comes within a hundred yards of
your house! And not to mention passersby. Now you’ll
never have to guess whether neighbors are coming near your
driveway or backyard bushes; your trusty doggie will sound
the alarm.
8. Hairy backseat! Who wouldn’t want their car interior
covered from top to bottom in attractive canine hair? I
mean, it’s a great souvenir that everyone who rides
with you can take with them afterwards! And it clings with
almost as much companionable persistence as the dog itself!
7. Vet and vaccination bills to help balance out your
budget. Hey, lets face it, we’ve all got to learn
responsibility! It’s important to know how to take
care of others, and give of your own monthly paycheck to
ensure their health and wellbeing. So be glad that you have
this opportunity to give back to the community!
6. Family time out in the backyard! Your canine may very
well be the biggest reason you spend time out in the back.
And you can enlist the whole family to partake in the lovely
activities that are available! There’s cleaning up
the doggie doo, playing tug of war with a wet slobbery rope,
cleaning up the doggie doo, bathing His Majesty Furriness,
and cleaning up the doggie doo!
5. Exercise. This is a big one, especially if you get
a puppy. If you have a pretty close relationship with the
living room couch right now, then it’s probably time
to take a break and work some stuff out—like your
hips and thighs! Dogs love to walk and run, and it’s
important for their health and development so grab the leash
and hit the pavement!
4. A set of excellent ears, and no voice box! Have a tough
day at work? Well, your dog is always ready for a discussion—and
he’ll let you do all the talking! Definitely one of
the best listeners you’ll ever know.
3. Your own personal greeting every time you walk in the
door! Those big happy paws planted on your legs may be the
first thing you come into contact with after setting foot
in your house. Enjoy that loving, slobbery kiss, and that
welcome bark, because he’s been waiting to do that
all day!
2. A warm spot on your lap. Even a +100lb rottweiler would
love to curl up with you in the recliner if you’ll
let him! Lather on the attention and you’ll receive
the favor a hundred fold.
1. Companionship and a tail to lean on. It’s no
lie that dogs are man’s best friend. Feel his warm,
friendly eyes looking into yours, see that tail wag, feel
his wet nose nudging your hand, and you’ll know—you
couldn’t ask for a bigger heart, nor a more dependable
fountain of unconditional love.
