Dogs have been man's best friend for centuries, and for good reason. They are loyal, loving, and protective, and they will always be there for their humans, no matter what. Some dogs are content to be lapdogs, while others are more active and enjoy spending time outdoors. But no matter what their personality, all dogs have one thing in common: they love their humans.
