More Than Just a Friend

Some Beautiful Moments of Having a Dog

This is my first story ever and the first subject I thought of was above. I am just back from a walk with my caramel-coloured friend and realize that I wouldn't exchange it for anything. You know why? Well I hope you do, but if not, I will try to explain my thoughts about it.

You get up from the couch and make your way to a drawer. It is not an ordinary one and your dog knows it the best. They know the sound of that drawer opening. Somehow, they can even guess you are heading that direction and get excited. As you open that source of happiness, your friend starts jumping up and down because there is nothing in the world they would love to do more than go on a walk with their human. Imagine that. This little creature treats you special, and here you go, you attach the the lead and leave the house. He might by now be walking on two legs because he thinks you are walking way too slow and there is so much to sniff and discover, just as if it was the first time he went for a walk. You cross the street and make your way to the park. It's his favorite because he can chase a rabbit there or a little squirrel and he just so loves it because it makes him feel cool. I don't know if your dogs are like that, but mine loses me out of his eyesight so easily that, when he stops sniffing and realizes he was doing it for the last five minutes, he looks around and can't see me, so I have to jump and wave as if I saw my human friend and wanted to wave hello. Well, he has now noticed me and come right to my leg so he can get a bit of cheese (his favorite treat). He gets a bit upset when you attach the lead back because it means we are heading home, and he would spend all the time in the park chasing birds, rabbits, squirrels, and anything else that can be chased.

There is more to a dog than just a great walk. You will never be alone. Never. Even if you wanted to have a moment. But to be honest, his little head on your lap makes everything better and brighter. Those little extra cute curls. Little, and at the same time, big eyes that look at you; look at you the way they look at their special human, and if you don't have a dog, you will not know, but their eyes are amazing and tell the story. These little four-legged friends become kids that you care about so much that, sometimes, you put their needs as a priority rather than yours, because you know that you are all they have and you are always in their dreams. I am sure they have dreams and am looking forward to when it gets completely scientifically proven.

I cannot put everything I feel about dogs in one piece, but one thing I can say is that there is nothing else like a dog. They are your friends, sunshine, and partners in all you do. Definitely more than just a pet.
