This Thanksgiving, why not thank the dog? After all, it’s probably the being you spend the most time with. Here are just 10 of the many reasons to be thankful for your dog.
#1 – Self-Propelled Vacuum
You never have to vacuum the kitchen floor when the dog’s on duty! They make our lives easier by keeping those floors licked clean.
#2 – Eco-Friendly Heated Blanket
Regardless of how cold it gets, your best bud will keep you warm without raising your electricity bill. Whether you are on the couch or snuggled in bed, you have a portable heater to keep you warm.
#3 – Free Alarm System
Alarm systems are expensive, but your dog has you covered. They will always let you know if someone is outside…or if a leaf is blowing.
#4 – Motivating Exercise Partner
It’s hard to be motivated to get out and be active. Your dog is a great motivational coach when it comes to getting out and doing something.
#5 – Reason to Get Up in the Morning
Life is hard, and sometimes it can be a chore just to get up. A wake-up including a wagging tail and kisses from a smiling face can really help you get up on those dreary days.
#6 – Helping Paws
Millions of dogs help people all around the world do almost everything – from guide dogs to search and rescue and seizure alert to emotional support – these dog owners have a lot to be thankful for.
#7 – Good Listener
Nobody listens quite like a dog. They will hear your every thought and never tell a single soul.
#8 – Encourages Laughing
Laughter is the best medicine they say. If that’s true then all dogs should be given an honorary M.D. They can brighten even the darkest day with their antics.
#9 – Friend Screener
Dogs have a great sense about people, making them a great judge of character. It’s wonderful to know you can trust your dog to let you know if someone is not trustworthy.
#10 – Unconditional Love
Perhaps the single, most important reason to be thankful for all that is DOG: unconditional love. Many of us feel closer to our dogs than we do people.
