But they usually try the “cheap” route which is only the cheaper choice at the moment. Humans are fine to show love and affection, but pets are even better. The only problem is, pets show a tremendous affection, and in the article “Why A Man’s Best Friend Is A Man’s Best Friend” it says,“Children often turn to their pet for comfort if a friend or a family member dies or leaves the family. Grieving adults who did not have a close source of human support were also found to have less depression if they had a pet”(Drs. Foster & Smith Educational Staff). Dogs know exactly how their human is feeling 99% of the time and if they do not know, they are always trying to figure it out. In “Huffington’s Post” they said, “Dogs are very attuned to humans' moods, which makes them a good gauge of what we're feeling. They're "an emotional barometer. Dogs have been domesticated for about 12,000 years," he says. "One of the things that research has shown is dogs have learned over these years, perhaps better than any other being, how to read our nonverbal behavior." (Klein,…
Candy demonstrates how the companionship of something familiar, something friendly, brings hope, and provides a way to make ones way through one’s life journey. At first, Candy has his dog, his unwaveringly faithful friend. Candy’s dog, despite being non-human, is a sentient being that Candy relies upon. Psychologically, when people cannot care for themselves to the degree they wish, the ability to protect and provide sustenance for a lesser creature or person provides a sense of accomplishment that they cannot attain in any other way. Candy cares for his dog and despite the fact that many see it as a worthless “object”, “‘Got no teeth, he's all stiff with rheumatism. He ain't no good to you, Candy. An' he ain't no good to himself. Why'n't you shoot him, Candy?’ (Steinbeck 22), Candy continues to…
I am the proud owner of a little brown dog named Bruno. I rescued him from the pound while I was in high school. The pound was unsure exactly what kind of dog Bruno was, but stated he is part Dachshund. I mentioned earlier, I rescued Bruno, but in reality he rescued me. My senior year of high school was not the greatest time for me, but owning Bruno got me through it. At the time, I just broke up with my high school “sweetheart” so to my immature young mind, I thought the world was coming to an end and I would never find someone else. Whether it was taking Bruno for walks, or trying to teach him new tricks he kept my mind occupied. I was given the responsibility to take care of him. I made sure he had all of his shots and there was fresh food and water for him. Until he was house broken, I was responsible to clean up after him. By being responsible for another being, it keeps a person centered not always thinking about themselves and their needs.…
The love of an animal is just as strong as the love of a person. Animals show love when they are shown love. Animals seem to have a sixth sense when it comes to people feeling down. They always show love, by licking or following me, and try to make me feel better when i'm sad or when i've had a rough day. I had a puppy that peed everytime he got excited because that’s just how much he loved people. Any time new people came to the house we had to put him outside because he would pee on them from excitement. I loved him even though i had to clean up after him all of the time. My love for animals will always be strong because animals are the most caring creatures on the earth to me. I believe in animal love because it is…

Getting a dog was the best thing I ever did. And the greatest joy of all was the unforeseen privilege of witnessing the changing seasons, day by day, leaf by leaf. I had prepared myself for the practicalities of welcoming a dog into my life. I had obviously also thought about the fact that she would need walking, whatever the weather. But I hadn’t fully envisioned the reality of that fact, the overwhelming gratitude I would come to feel towards her for getting me out of the house every day. In the dark and the buffeting storms. In sideways rain and pelting hail. Never have I felt more alive and more a part of nature. I am lucky enough to live near a small wood which naturally became the obvious place to roam with my dog and in those woods I saw nature unfurl before my very eyes. In subtle and big ways, in…
“A dog is the only thing on Earth that loves you more than he loves himself,” said famous 19th- century author Josh Billings.

I really want another dog to join our family.…

Imagine walking up to your brown old door with a gold, shinny door handle, ready to slide your key in. Click. You open up the door into the darkness. The next thing you hear is woof and meow. The biggest grin is on your face. You are so ready to tell your life story to them. Wagging their tails on your lap, the best feeling is to have your pet sitting right next to you and never wanting to leave. This is how life should be when you own a pet, but sadly it not the way the world works anymore.…
I sat in the car, my heart fluttering. After months of begging and convincing my mom finally agreed to adopt a dog. I stared out the window watching the leaves dance like butterflies through the cool winter breeze. I saw a little girl being tugged along the sidewalk by a Saint Bernard with fluffy hair like a mop, soaking up the rain from the night before. Soon I saw all that my dog could be, a tiny puppy, with fur as soft as a cloud in the sky, that would bark and jump at my feet when I entered the room, a dog who stood tall and would sprint through the park in search of a ball, or a small dog with long, silky fur who would curl up next to me as I closed my eyes.…
