JUST GET THE DOG (in your 20s)

It’s always good to make informed and prepared decisions when you’re taking on such a huge responsibility - but if you’re like I was, and have debated and held yourself back from getting a dog or pet for years - JUST DO IT!

I’m a generally responsible person, but I still held myself back from getting an animal - you’re always told your 20s should be about freedom and fun. Most people view pets as a responsibility that takes away from that freedom. This is true in some aspects, but your pet is with you every day - morning and night, through bad times and good. The daily joy is SO worth it. Even if life is a little more expensive, or I have to plan trips ahead to make sure his care is sorted. My dog has helped my mental health so much. I actually just adopted another one! I love my life with animals and will never live a day without them again 🖤🤍 It is so nice to grow up with my dog. He’s seen me make so many important life steps and changes already!
