Relationship Spotting: Reasons Why You Should Date a Dog Owner

Written by Gary

I consider myself an animal lover. If you don’t believe me, just ask the fox fur shawl I have draped over the mannequin beside my bed. God, I wish I was kidding.

I had a dog once. Her name was Buckley and I kept her alive for 5 years. We had a lot of good times together, from going running by the water in the morning to snugging up at night. In five years, we only had one health scare when she chewed on some rat poison by accident, but everything turned out all right. Then, when I realized I didn’t have enough time to devote to her, I sold her to someone who lives by the park for $500 and used the money to go on vacation. I will openly admit that I cried on that last day, though. I think that must mean something, although since I am a boy I have no idea what.

Animals bring an element of nurturing into your life that doesn’t otherwise exist. Being responsible for another living thing and caring for it makes you a better person. This is coming from someone who managed to neglect a cactus.

Here are the reasons that you should date an animal-lover.

Guys with dogs probably won’t beat you. If they can find it in their heart to love a dog, they most likely have a nurturing soul. You might have to dig through a lot of bullshit in order to convince them to love you as much as they love their pet, but once you do, odds are they will be as loyal as Old Yeller.

Guys with dogs are hot. Granted, a big buff guy walking around holding a chihuahua looks a little suspect (and by suspect I mean unabashedly homosexual)  but a medium sized guy with a medium sized dog is sexy.

Guys with dogs are snuggly. I don’t much buy into all that snuggling bullshit, but I know lots of women do. I can pretty much promise that a dog owner is a snuggly type of guy. What I can’t promise is that he will choose to snug up to you over Fido.

Guys with dogs make good parents. If they can keep a dog alive for any number of years, they can do the same thing with a kid. And that’s all we can reasonably hope for, right?
