They protect us, give us unconditional love and hope. In our worst times they make us better.
All the things that book says about Jesus.

God I love dogs.

(3,242 posts)thirty plus years ago as they denied their children any pets...they had all grown up and moved away before my sister-in-law got a dog. In my opinion all kids need a dog or at least a pet of some type. This video is just amazing...that kid knows what love is!

(10,429 posts)As children, we occasionally had a dog, and some "farm cats". I say occasionally, because the dog would either run off or something would happen. None were ever allowed in the house.
It's not the same at all, and I now feel terrible for the dogs we had outside who also didn't get the attention they deserved. I can't now imagine not having your animals indoors, they are part of the family.

(1,151 posts)I desperately wanted a cat or dog but my mother claimed she was allergic (it didnt occur to me at the time that she didnt explain how she managed growing up with a dog herself). I had a very lonely and unhappy childhood and know I wouldve benefited greatly from having a real pet I could cuddle and interact with. Since moving out on my own Ive had both and I love them more than the vast majority of people.

This video answers that question.
