Awesome must read article for all my dog lover friends (and friends that aren’t necessarily dog lovers too for that matter).
When my dog died, I didn’t understand why it felt like a human had died. Then I read the research.
I picked the dog I wanted in the same way I picked a favorite Pokémon. I looked in the classified section next to the automotive ads and found a breed named “Peekapoo,” which was close enough to “Pikachu.” No one ever tells you that begging for a dog as an 11-year-old could affect you deeply as an adult.
