Photo Friday: Prescription for a Dog

Forget about Benjamin Franklin's advice about apples keeping the doctor away. Eating apples everyday can get VERY boring! But do you know what doesn't get boring having every day? A dog! Good ole Benny should've advised everyone to "Play with a dog a day, keep the doctor away"! That would be even better, by far.

But in all seriousness, I "workout" more ever since I have had Luna. I go on walks every day (better than my sitting on the couch when I got home prior to being a dog mom). On weekends, I tend to go on longer walks (sometimes hikes) to keep Luna active. I focus on tiring out Luna, and in the process I tire myself out and get some exercise! 

Having a dog around also makes you happy (unless you are allergic...then maybe you aren't to happy). They keep you company when no one else is around! You are their number 1 favorite person in the world. How does that not make you happy? 

Yes, a dog will cost you a lot of money (there's no doubt about that). But there are definitely ways to keep a dog on a budget. A dog does not need the newest and coolest water dish, just designate one of your own bowls. Or look up a bunch of DIY dog treats on pinterest (or my blog). There are many ways you can save, and in the end it's definitely worth the friendship, health, and love. 

I could not imagine my life without my little bugger, Luna. Honestly...It's really hard for me to remember what I did on the weekends when I didn't have Luna. Did I really just watch marathons of Dateline or Property Brothers? How depressing. 

The point of this post: A dog will keep your body, mind and spirit healthy! Adopt a dog in need! 

Flashback to the first photo I took with Luna! #dogselfie
