Are Dogs Worth it?

Have you ever begged your parents for a dog, thinking it will be a breeze and be barely any work? Well, you are wrong dogs can actually be a handful and somewhat a mess. You might still say though, “but it will be fine for me –besides I have wanted one for soooo long!’’ No matter how long you have waited you might not be ready, and you must have A LOT of time on your hands to take care of one. Dogs are not just something to have for fun like a toy, they are real living creatures that need you to have time to play with them. You need to take them out for a walk every day at least 2 times a day. And most importantly they need to be supplied with food every day and water just like you do! Plus, the food might not be so cheap once you have had a dog for a while. But of course, they will most likely be like a best friend to you, even family. So, if your lonely you can always count on your best friend to keep you company! Though if your dog gets lonely it might want a friend so you might have to get another dog so that’s even more money you have to spend to get stuff for that dog. Also, this is not counting with toys and a cage which you will most likely have to buy including a collar and leash when you take them for walks or in case they run away. Now, think again, do you still think dogs are worth the trouble or would you rather stay out of the dog zone?
