I like them a lot too coz they tend to make all silly things and make you laugh too.You'll be happy to see them doing somethings always and they really understand what we say to them.They are so loyal to their master.

I love how they seem to know just how I'm feeling. When I'm sad or upset about it, my dogs know it and they try their best to comfort me. When I'm happy they want to play. I think they really do understand us better than we understand them!

What I love most about dogs would have to be.. There companionship. Sometimes when you feel like you have no one in this world, you can always count on them to be there for you. I know I feel this way when it comes to our dog since whenever I am feeling down, she will be there right beside me.. Almost like she's cheering me on to feel better, & not to worry.. And that at least I have somebody. The second thing I love about dogs would have to be there loyalty. The reason behind this is because.. Whenever I return home from being away, whether that be because I was out grocery shopping or had to run some errands.. I will come home & she will greet me at the door & be excited to see me. Sometimes as well when I leave the house.. Someone will tell me how she was sitting by mine & my other half's door just waiting for us to return back from wherever we had to go.. I think that is true loyalty when she does this each & every time. I find another way that our dog is loyal to me.. Is when I can tell she is getting herself in to some mischief.. I will say something to her to stop her from continuing this behavior.. And the only one who she will listen to is me, but also the sound of my voice.. She will then stop what she is doing & obey what I had told her to do! I as well love how my dog is full of life! How she constantly keeps me young by her playful nature.. Where she finds this energy from I will never know. But she keeps me on my toes but also in shape since she is a ball of energy! I know every time I tell her to grab a specific toy she will go & get the toy & then bring it back to me.. I as well love how our dog is so affectionate. How whenever I am down she will come up to me & just kiss me on the face.. And make me feel better within just a few seconds! It's amazing how quickly she is able to bring up my spirits.. Other things I love about dogs in general would have to be.. How protective they are.. How they are willing to protect you whenever they feel there owner or the people whom they care for.. Are being threatened or put in danger! I love how dogs seem to have a way of keeping you warm. I know that our dog personally is almost like a little furnace. Whenever it's cold within the house.. I love being able to cuddle with her late at night whenever I feel cold. In conclusion.. All of these things that I love about dogs.. Is why I love my dog so much & why dogs are one of my favorite animals out there in this world. Thanks for allowing me to share! xx

I like Black Labs because they are very easy to train and they are always loyal companions.

Our friends have an Akita. Although I was a bit apprehensive to being around such a big dog, I soon realized that he was a gentle giant. He is a very strong dog and being that he is so playful, I nearly ended on my butt when he would "ask" for attention. Bailey made us feel welcome in our friend's home.

That would be the same thing that I'd love about dogs. They are alot of work so that is why we don't have any for now. Someday when I retire, I'll get me one.

I am not really a dog person - but I do like that they are loyal. And they can tell when you are sad about something and try to cheer you up. They are excited when you come home... I just don't like the jumping and the drooling and the marking their territory.

I like dogs very much. They are cute, obediant and loyal. Very nice to have them and play with them. I have a dog at home that jumps at me whenever I get back to my home. It licks my legs and love playing with me.

I love that they just love to be with me! It's so easy to make them happy, and their loyalty and companionship makes ME happy. So we're all happy together! The look on their faces in the morning when I put my boots on, it's like the greatest thing in the world is about to happen because I am taking them for a walk. AND they protect me and my house. No one is gonna mess with me when I have 4 dogs with me, especially my 130 pound shepherd! I can go running or jogging at night and still feel safe.

They are also very good listeners and don't talk back. :)
