A dogs Happiness!

Dogs understand the world better than humans. There, I said it. Actually, the lack of verbal communication might be working to their advantage, because somehow, the canine population has a much better grasp on how to achieve complete happiness more so than any human I’ve ever met. We analyze, we obsess, we complain, and we live in that destructive cycle following every interaction. We also doubt our own potential and we constantly let fear get in the way of what we want. Dogs don’t have time or interest in any of that.

Dogs live in the moment and they love harder than any other species. Sure, they don’t have jobs or make money, or have the ability to live 80+ years so there are obviously some aspects of life that dogs cannot fathom. However, the way they live in their short time on this planet is truly a beautiful practice in unwavering enthusiasm. There are lots of lessons we could all learn from dogs, and when it comes to being happy, here are the most important ones.

They Don’t Overthink Anything

They are blissfully unfazed by an awkward interaction, a clumsy misstep in front of a pack of other dogs, or their strange reaction to the sound of the vacuum. They just live, never caring what others think. You know how people say, “just do you,” when they’re encouraging you to be yourself? Yeah, dogs started that whole thing.

They Love With Reckless Abandon

Canines are the most unselfish companions on the face of the Earth. It’s never about them, it’s always about you. They never read into anything, they never judge you, and they will never abandon you. If that’s not the definition of ‘ride or die’ then I don’t know what is.

They Get How Wonderful Food Is

Dinner time for them, just like for us, is the best time of the day. Dogs are never happier than when their bowls are filled. And their food is pretty gross. It’s bland, doesn’t change from meal to meal, and is typically of icky consistency. But they wag and twirl and hop when dinner time comes. Just like most humans when faced with a heaping bowl of mac and cheese.

It is OK for you to re-post articles as long as you credit the sources, which you did... However, it would always be best if you read an article you enjoy, and summarize it into your own words. And then, link the article(s) that you referenced.

Best of luck!
