7 Things You Do for Your Dog That You Wouldn’t Do for Anyone Else

 

 

Dogs, we love them and they love us. If you are a mommy or a daddy to a pet dog then you know you would do certain things for them that you wouldn’t for anybody. Why? Because your dog is cute, and it knows nothing else other than to love you unconditionally.

You Clean up Their Poop:  Can you imagine doing this for anyone else? Millions of dog parents worldwide take their dogs out for walks and happily clean up after them. Maybe not happily, but they do it anyways. Thank god for biodegradable poop bags and poop scoopers.

You Spend Hours Finding Things for Them on the Internet:  One of the many joys of pet parenting is constantly browsing the net to find discount pet items such as treats and toys. In fact, if you are like most dog parents, this has become a thing that you have grown to love.

You Keep on Making Awful Songs for Them: Your spouse or significant other may appreciate you making songs for them, but all you do is make silly rhymes for your dog. Your dogs may not understand a single word, but they seem mighty happy when they see you sing. They might even join the band by howling along.

You Carry Food in Your Pocket:  Every time you go out with your dog, you prepare a little goodie bag for your dog. By “goodie” we mean dog treats and by “bag” we mean your pocket. While your dog enjoys an occasional outdoor snack, you have to deal with a pocket full of biscuit crumbs. You wouldn’t do it for anyone else.

You Crowd Your Phone’s Memory with Their Photos: Your phone’s memory is a sacred space where only the most deserving apps and photos retain their right to survive. If your phone has limited space, you often need to go on clean-up sprees, deleting everything you find remotely nonessential. Yet you never think of deleting any one of those thousands of doggie photos and selfies that are crowding your phone’s memory. Now, that’s love.

You Inspect Their Poop for Signs of Intestinal Worms: There are times when pet parents are forced to closely inspect their dogs’ poop. They often do it because vets recommend them to keep an eye out for common intestinal worms such as tapeworms and roundworms. If that wasn’t enough, you might even need to collect the smelly sample and carry it to your vet’s office.

Instantly Forgiving Serious Offenses: From chewing on your expensive leather boots to peeing on important documents, dogs seem to always find new ways to get into trouble. Their curious nature coupled with their mischievous demeanors often causes irrecoverable damages to human property. What follows after something like that happens? You start making a YouTube video of the mess with you saying, “What did you do Max?” Max responds appropriately giving you the guiltiest expression ever. You have no option but to forgive your pet almost instantly.
