I have a hard time making friends and, while it’s a huge responsibility, getting a dog has made me feel so much more social. The dog park has become a huge part of my day, even though it doesn’t necessarily carry over into other social events. It’s just nice seeing people consistently and slowly getting to know them. I’ve met such kind people there and it’s made me feel so much less alone.

I don’t recommend just getting a dog unless it’s something you were already curious or interested in. It’s just brought so much joy to my life in a way I didn’t really expect.
