Dogs come in different shapes, sizes, and temperaments but we love them nonetheless. They are not just pets but also members of our family. Only dog owners can truly appreciate and comprehend that kind of bond between dogs and humans. Here are 6 things people without dogs will not understand.
1. Having a conversation with your furry friend.
People who don’t own a dog will tell you that your dog doesn’t speak your language. Therefore, he doesn’t get what you’re saying. Regardless of these comments, dog owners continue to talk to their furry buddy. Why? Because pawparents know that dogs can feel love and other emotions through words.
When dog owners talk to their dogs, their furry friends have a serious look on their faces. It seems like they are trying hard to understand human language. So, don’t stop chatting with your furry friend. He loves hearing about your day and how much you love him.
2. Cancelling vacation to stay with our best furry buddy.
Some dog owners choose to give up their travelling plans and spend their time with their best furry friend instead. We may have a lot of things going on in our lives, but our pooches come first.
3. Why use an alarm clock when you have a dog?
Raising a dog also means getting rid of the alarm clock. If you walk your furry friend on a daily basis, he will do the honour of waking you up every day. Dog owners don’t need to worry about setting alarms to wake them up.
We know very well how creative our goofy pooches can get. Some will mercilessly trample their owners on the bed whilst others will bark nonstop. If you are lucky, your pooch will give you a slobbery kiss to wake you up.

4. Their shenanigans ease our stress.
If you’ve had a gruelling day from work, trust in your dog’s hilarious antics to dissolve your stress and worries away. Our dogs’ wagging tails and excited wide-eyed stares immediately restore our vitality.
And of course, don’t forget the great feeling that we get when cuddling them. It greatly recharges our energy and helps us face another day.

5. Our dogs feast on tastier and healthier food than we do.
Dog owners put a lot of thought on the type of food they give to their beloved pooches. Leftovers are a big no-no. So we turn to healthier choices such as fresh, organic, non-GMO and grain-free dog food. Thus, our furry friends have a carefully selected delicious and nutritious meal served to them every day. Meanwhile, we eat mass-produced foods on sale at the supermarket.😂
6. Dog hair everywhere!
Every dog owner knows that there is absolutely no escape from dog hair. We have also acknowledged the fact that every piece of clothing is covered with layers of dog hair. We try to convince ourselves that we can get rid of them by using a vacuum or a hair remover brush, but the reality is hair will follow you everywhere.
