There are various kinds of pets these days. In my opinion, dogs are the best pets for three reasons. First of all, they are friendly. Actually, I have two dogs in my house. They always greet me when I come back home. Even when I come back from a supermarket near my house, they greet me as they wag their tails. Their greetings encourage me when I’m tired from school works. In the mornings, they awake me. They jump into my bed and lick my hand or bark. It sometimes bothers me, but I think it’s better than mother’s shouting. And I like them waking me up because I feel as if they are my family, not animals. Second, they are intelligent. They snarl and bark when a stranger comes to my house. One day, when a doorbell didn’t work, my neighbor came into my home to give some food, but I didn’t notice that even though she was calling for us. However, my dogs were barking consistently. I thought it was strange that they were barking continuously like that, so I opened the door, and my neighbor was standing there. I felt bad about not answering her, but thanked God for giving me my dogs. And I was proud of my dogs from the thought that they could protect me from a stranger’s visit. But they don’t bark any time. They only bark when a stranger come to my house. In addition, they are so obedient that they stop barking when I say “stop it!” There is also an example about their intelligence. They are housebroken. If they are trained once, they must know where the proper place for

their toilet is. Finally, they are lovely. They make me happy when I’m gloomy. For instance, one dog brings a ball to me and waits until I throw it. When I throw it, they run to catch it. If one dog catches it, another tries to snatch it. We repeat it again and again. Meanwhile, I become happy. Sometimes they do a naughty thing like hiding my socks in their house. Then I scold them, and they pretend that they become sulky. They go to the corner and look at me with a sidelong glance lying on the ground. If I say “come here,” they rush to me. They are so cute and lovely. Therefore, for these reasons, I recommend dogs for the best pets. If you live with dogs, you’ll feel more energetic and happy.
