30 Tweets That Show Dogs Are Truly Man’s Best Friends, Shared By This Twitter Account Dedicated To Cool Dog Facts
As you probably know, all people are divided into two categories - those who love cats, and those who prefer dogs. We agree that cute cats are what the internet has been based on since the beginning of the world, but doggos are still our one true love. In general, people have always glorified dogs with great pleasure.
For example, like the creators of this popular Twitter page called Cool Dog Facts, who really collect interesting and thought-provoking facts about dogs' lives and their friends, accompanying them with cool pictures.
The motto of the blog, which has garnered almost 150K followers in around ten years of existence, is "Wag More. Bark Less". We do believe this motto perfectly captures the true nature of wonderful doggos.
Bored Panda created a curated list with the best of this page for you - isn't it great? We are sure that even the toughest cat lovers will shed tears of tenderness.

I was once told "If your dog doesn't like someone, you shouldn't either."
Here's the secret: The reason your dog doesn't like them is usually that you don't either. Your dog is following your signs. We have reasons to be suspicious, reasons to be wary, reasons to be careful, but we ignore all those signs because we can't explicate them or it'd be 'rude not to give them a chance' or we convince ourselves that we're being cranky or whatever. Our dogs don't have those social niceties on top. They see that a member of their pack (i.e., us) has weird body language towards that person (just a little stiff or a little jumpy), they see we're staying just one half step further away, or that our shoulders are tight, or our arms are crossed, or whatever and they think "Ooh, pack is wary and potentially in danger! I too shall be wary and be ready to protect the pack."

I know where you’re coming from. My son is disabled and dogs scare him because of stupid owners who think everyone should like their dog even when it knocks them over. Now he’s an adult he’s less in danger but he still scared and he hates being barked at. I was bitten on the face by a puppy when I was a child but it was a matter of unruliness rather than viciousness. I like dogs which are properly trained and I like dog owners who take care of their dogs.

I knew a girl who got bitten on the face by a dog when she was a young child. For her, not liking dogs was ok in my book. Everyone else,,, distrust!
I agree. My little dog tried to bite someone and turns out woman stole all kinds of stuff from my apt. Lied that she had a driver's license drove my car ran out of gas the lost only key fob I had to my car. Stole from neighbors who let her in their homes. Nothing valuable but got a thrill from stealing
This is complete b******t. Dogs are just like people. They can be frightened by someone for reasons that you don't understand. I'm a dog person and almost every dog I have ever met is drawn to me. I say almost because it does happen occasionally where a dog is afraid or doesn't like me. That does not make me a bad or untrustworthy person.
I agree I have one dog who is terrified of my husbands grandpa. He is an amazing man and an animal lover. Every other rescue or foster we had has adored him, except this one rescue. It breaks his heart too, poor guy..he just reminds her of someone else I guess.

He'd growl if they tried to get near to her. If I was there he'd protect both of us. She had a large boyfriend that she lived with. We never figured out what would set the dog off about some specific people. We just believed him and avoided these "friends".
My dogs are a terrible barometer for who is or isn't a good person. Given enough time and treats they'll love anyone
My dog's bs radar is so much quicker than mine & a million times more accurate.
Our dog always hated this guy my friend was dating. The boyfriend ended up cheating on her. Well spotted, Oscar.
Dogs know a person's true intentions. If the don't doesn't like someone you should be suspicious.
Heck yes!!! My dog hated my rapist on sight. He even went after him.... too bad it didn't stop any of what happened from happening!
my best friends dog didn't like me at first and she put him outside. i told her the dog was probably right.
Haha except my dog. She's very protective and hates ANYONE but her hoomans. Even our closest friends don't stand a chance
I believe this is a quote by Bill Murray. Some proper attribution would be nice.
How you treat animals and how you treat staff. Always be nice to janitors, cleaning and cantine workers, cashiers...
Most people really like their dogs more than most people. In the end, who else is able to love their owner like Hachiko, be as selfless as Balto - and people always reciprocate to their devoted friends.
After all, the friendship of people and dogs is one of the main themes in world culture. Dorothy and Toto, Wallace and Gromit, Cruella de Ville... well, not exactly a good example, let's remember Shaggy Rogers and Scooby-Doo, then.
There was a time where I adopted dogs that needed hospice care. There are people that cannot afford treatments and leave them at shelters because they think they have a better chance. There are charities that can help with this , don't let your dog pass away without his person.
Dogs do occupy a special place in our lives - because they, unlike people, are not capable of betrayal. As one wise man used to say, "The more I get to know men, the more I love dogs."
Cynologists believe that a dog always chooses a person for itself as the leader of its own pack. The wolf past still shows up, even if your dog is neither the size nor the appearance of a wolf.
Remember Robinson Crusoe - when he got to a desert island, long before he met his only human friend, Friday, he regretted more than once that at least one dog was not with him at the moment.
According to the legends of many nations, all dogs definitely go to heaven after their death, and then, when time comes for their owner to pass away, the dog leads a person across the rainbow bridge leading to paradise, easing the burden of his sins.
Indeed, a dog does not care whether you are a successful person or not, how much money you earn or what kind of car you've got. It will stay with you in joy and sorrow, and will do its best to make you feel good, because you are its best friend.
And so does yours. Never understood that until I had my first rescue.
Also, if you're prepared for and committed to getting a dog, please adopt from a shelter. If you're going to be gone 10 hours a day for work, get a cat.
We'd love your comments and your best dog stories too, but if you're an orthodox cat fan, check out this recent "Klepto Cat" story. Or, for the neutrals, our dandy selection of raccoon memes. And the creators of the Cool Dog Facts blog for sure will continue delighting us with new facts - and new doggos.
I knew it was silly, but I felt guilty "replacing" my dog. I got a rescue and it felt like honoring my dog- not replacing her.
Don't need studies to know that... I've nested a pup in my hair, doesn't matter what anyone says, I'm still his mum. And he's my furever baby.
Our little rescue girl smiles. It’s so lovely, her dad comes home and she’s up on the sofa smiling at him. She also grins when she’s asleep. She’s too gorgeous!
German proverb: "Daß mir der Hund das Liebste sei, sagst du, o Mensch, sei Sünde? Der Hund blieb mir im Sturme treu, der Mensch nicht mal im Winde." (translates mostl to "Men say it's a sin I prefer dogs over their kin, but dog stayed at my side in a storm while men left me during the breeze.")
Step 2: be owned by a nice person. Sadly not all dogs have a nice home. 😔
Doesn't apply to Australian Cattle Dogs! They need SO much physical and mental stimulation!
The best part of my day is coming home and seeing my dog's feet dancing with excitement under the curtain. All that for me. That's love.
Rescue dogs are amazing. I had two rescue pitties. One has sadly passed but the other is still with us.
Load More Replies...I went on a 5 day trip recently to visit family. Our two dogs were at home with my husband and son, but my husband told me they sat in the kitchen every day that I was gone, watching out the window for my return. I love those guys so much. My husband and son are great too! ☺️

See! This is why I keep saying that crimes against dogs should be like crimes against people! Someone steals your dog, they should be punished for kidnapping - not "property theft." It should be the equivalent of murder when police come onto your property without warning and shoot your dog because you weren't given the opportunity to safely restrain it. It should be treated like child abuse when you beat a your dog or drop it in the middle of nowhere. My dogs are the sweetest beings I could ever hope to know... they're my babies... and if something were ever to happen to them, my whole world would be crushed. Why shouldn't people be punished to the degree of the heartbreak they cause? Seriously.
I love my cat dearly, but after I lost my Lucy Loo, I just couldn't get another dog. Seeing this, I realize how much I'd love one again, but where I'm moving I can't because it's a sheep farm and it's working dogs only. No, I can be friends with them. They're there to "work". But I love my kitty like crazy.
