There ain’t no pet like a dog. They are spectacular. No one can match their style. They’re friendly, helpful and empathetic. How on earth can they possibly not be good boys and girls? Our dogs are extremely precious to us. They know all our deepest darkest secrets but never judge us. They see we mess up sometimes but they never they leave our side. They know we’re not perfect and sometimes it gets hard for us to love our selves, but they never stop believing us and keep loving us. They are a true example of a best friend.
Every dog is unique and has its own specialities. Some are working dogs and others just stay at home, making sure we’re well taken care of. However, some dogs are quietly fighting their own battles in silence. Not saying a word and constantly trying to make it through each day. Life is not easy for anyone, but we can still make each day count. We are too blinded by our own problems that we overlook the struggles of those around us. Just like us humans, some dogs are warriors fighting every second on the battlefield of life against the deadly diseases. All our dogs need from us is loads of love, care and affection. Here are 20 tweets from @dog_rates — our daily dose of good boys and good girls. Scroll down to check them out.

This is Kerith. She’s a fire department therapy dog. With more than two dozen major fires burning in California, she’s unfortunately been very busy. She meets her firefighters at the staging area and gives each of them a hug before they head out. 14/10 for everybody pic.twitter.com/iaPgDE0Evc

Naturally, dogs are extremely happy animals. They have a zest for life like no other, even humans. Sometimes, when we’re in the darkest of times and nothing seems to really work out, our dogs step forward and cheer us up. There’s more to dogs than what meets the eye. They also possess extraordinary healing and soothing skills that really come in handy why someone is not having a great time. They feel the emotions of others and give them a reassuring hug. Because sometimes all you need is a hug and reassurance that everything will be alright.
