Someone Wrote A Poem About Why Dogs Are Man's Best Friend And We Love It

There is no point in denying that dogs are, in fact, man’s best friend! The unconditional love they shower us with is truly humbling. Those who go to bed at night saying their prayers, often include their furry buddies in them. And why not: they make us laugh, they keep us safe and they teach us so much about life that we sometimes unwillingly ignore.Show more

One dog lover took his admiration for the canine species to the next level. He wrote a poem with the title “God Made a Dog” and it goes something like this:

“And on the 9th-day, God looked down on his wide-eyed children and said, ‘They need a companion.’ So, God made a dog.

God said, ‘I need somebody willing to wake up, give kisses, pee on a tree, sleep all day, wake up again, give more kisses, then stay up until midnight, basking in the glow of a television set.’ So, God made a dog.

God said, ‘I need somebody willing to sit, then stay, then roll over. Then with no ego or complaint, dress in hats they don’t need and costumes they don't understand.

I need somebody who can break wind without a first care, without a second thought, who can chase tails, sniff crotches, fetch sticks, and lift spirits with a lick. Somebody who no matter what you didn’t do, or couldn’t take, or didn’t win, or couldn’t make, will love you without judgment just the same.’ So, God made a dog.”

He did, in fact, make dogs like that. He made them tough enough to pull sleds and sniff out, yet gentle enough to love babies and lead the blind. Someone who will offer their resting head supportive eyes on the couch, so that they might mend a broken heart.

That is right, folks - our dogs are our best friend.
