This blog post is about my favorite dog; my girlfriends Husky. His name is Chase and he is the most beautiful dog in the world. He is the most loyal dog in the world.

I think Huskies are the most beautiful dogs in the world. They literally look like majestic wolves and it’s amazing. Chase is such a faithful dog. He is always there when I wake up waiting for me to take him out for walks and give him belly scratches. This last year he has become my best friend and I would recommend everyone gets a husky.

Chase has had a huge impact in my life because he has shown me what it is like to have a friend that loves you unconditionally. He is truly man’s best friend.

This blog is about adopting dogs. I truly think that adopting a dog is the best thing one can do. When you adopt a dog you are giving hope to a cute little creature that needs it. Below are some websites that are helpful in finding dogs a home.

Whenever you think of the word smart I’m sure the word “dog” is not the first word that pops into your head. You’d be impressed to find out that dogs are actually some of the smartest creatures on earth.

As you can tell by this picture above, this dog most likely went to Harvard to get his Masters degree. Now he is currently working on his online Doctorate degree. Dogs can be some of the most intelligent creatures and can be taught how to do numerous things. When properly trained, dogs can do cute tricks, open doors, fetch something for you, dogs can even be service dogs and help people with certain disabilities. The list goes on and on.

Attached is an article depicting some reasons as to why dogs are so intelligent. http://www.businessinsider.com/special-abilities-that-show-how-smart-dogs-are-2016-6/#3-with-eye-contact-they-form-a-special-bond-with-humans-3

I think seeing a dog doing incredible tricks or helping people with disabilities, being K-9 units really shows how fascinating and intelligent they are. They have the capability of doing amazing things if provided the right training.

There has always been a debate as to which animal is cuter as a baby. I personally love both puppies and kittens. I feel like kittens are pretty cool when they’re super young because they haven’t fully evolved into their jerk-ish cat ways yet and obviously puppies are precious. So which animal is the best? Obviously it all goes down to what you prefer but I am going to shed some light as to why I tend to lean more towards the puppies. I’ve had a kitten and I know from experience that, although they are cute, they destroy all your furniture. My cats have completely peeled off the leather off our past couches and some wooden bed frames.  Kittens also tend to leave hairballs all over the place which gets to be annoying. Another reason is puppies tend to be more energetic and love to go for walks. I’m personally a very athletic and active person. I love taking my girlfriends dog on walks and I think that’s just one of the positives to owning a puppy as opposed to a kitten. Below is an article discussing just 10 reasons puppies are better than kittens.

I think that everyone is entitle to their own opinion about which is better, but if you think kittens are better you’re probably wrong.

Last time I blogged I continued talking about dogs I would like to have in the future. Today I thought I’d take a break from that and talk about one of my favorite dog topics which is when they do funny things. This blog was inspired by a dog I saw rolling around on the grass while its owner was waiting with a look of disappointment. I think one of the funniest things is when dogs try to talk. I know that my girlfriends dog loves doing this. Whenever he wants to be let out or he wants to go on a walk he “talks” in a funny way. I also love watching videos of dogs doing funny things. Here’s one of my personal favorite videos of dogs doing hilarious things https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkrdtKMvQvE

One thing I love is watching how excited dogs get when their owners get home. They start yelping and wagging their tails in such an excited frenzy. When I go visit my girlfriend, her husky gets so excited it runs around, hugs me, barks and then runs some more until it has to poop. One thing that I find particularly funny is when dogs walk. I think it’s just the funniest things because they look like tiny, furry human wannabes.

There is no doubt in my mind that dogs are the best creatures on this earth. Watching them do hilarious things is one of my favorite things. Before I finish this blog here is a picture of a dog doing something hilarious.

Last time I blogged I started this series called “Dogs I’d Like to Have.”  Today I will be continuing the series.  The dog I will be talking about today is the beautiful, husky.  Now huskies are the most excitable creatures you will ever meet.  Just today I was walking on campus of my university and so happened to stumble by a husky puppy that ran up to me and hugged me.  The owner apologized but it was exactly what I wanted so like it’s all good.  Below is a husky puppy:

Notice the pure cuteness, the attentive ears, the gorgeous eyes.  My girlfriend has a husky and he is the most loving dog I’ve ever met. Below is an article depicting 14 reasons on why these canines are the best. https://www.buzzfeed.com/andyneuenschwander/things-anyone-who-has-a-husky-knows-is-true?utm_term=.uh3vmW4L3#.do3kD4Kq1 .  I never really loved huskies until I met Chase, my girlfriends dog and now he has been automatically been added to my list of favorites. They’re very loyal, playful and love to go on walks.  This is definitely a dog I will get in the future.

There are many dogs that have their own qualities that make them great. Today I will be starting a series called “Dogs I’d Like to Have” and it will have a number of “chapters” if you will about the type of dog that I would like to have in the future.  One dog that I have always thought was great is a German Shepherd.

As you can see above, this is a German Shepherd puppy. I’ve always loved this breed of dog because of their loyalty and how they can be trained to be guard dogs. One of my friends has a German Shepherd and he is a very protective dog but also friendly. Attached is an article about the 10 reasons why German Shepherds are good pets. https://www.petsworld.in/blog/10-reasons-why-german-shepherd-is-a-good-family-dog.html

These majestic dogs are an intelligent, protective companion that puts other dog breeds to shame.  Another great thing about German Shepherds is that they require at least 30 minutes of exercise. This will of course help the owners to also to stay in shape because they can go out for runs or walks with their loyal companion.  All in all, German Shepherds make for great companions that, if trained correctly and at an early age, can be a perfect addition to any family.

What makes a person go for a specific dog breed? Is it their size, the type of hair, their characteristics?  Well in this post I will be telling you which breeds are worth getting and why any breed of dog, no matter how ugly, is still better than a cat.  One of the best breeds of dogs is the Labrador.  No matter what you mix with a Lab you’re bound to get a majestic, beautiful creature of wonder. You get bonus points if you mix a black lab and dachshund. I mean just look at this picture:

If you don’t like this dog everything you stand for is a lie and I probably don’t like you. Frankly, if you don’t like puppies approximately 104% of people will not like you (proven fact and not made up). My other all time favorite breed is a Corgi. They’re those cute dogs with chubby little legs but a normal sized dogs body. If you mix a Corgi with any type of breed you will get a beautiful creation with short little legs.  Although there are cute dogs, there are some that may be less cute than others. For example I find bulldogs to be ugly. But even though they’re ugly I prefer them a million times over a cat. I currently have two cats and I can’t even get them to look my way when I call them. I go over my friends house and his bulldog will come over without me even calling him. You know what I call that? Manners. And Max the bulldog (my friends dog) has manners. My cats don’t. In short, cats are awful and any dog breed, even the ugly bulldog, is better than a dumb cat.
