I miss having a dog. I don't mean a 'pet' dog, but a *real* companion - the dog who greets you at the door with a wet tongue and a waggy tail after a long hard day. The dog who loves you more than anything even when you hate yourself, who will get up and follow you literally *everywhere* even if you're walking from one end of the room to the other. Our current pet is my Mum's companion, so even though I love him, he has no eyes for everyone but her. I used to have a companion, but she died five years ago, and I still have a hole in my heart where she used to be. I'm going to university soon, and I really want to get a dog. I've had a lot of negative reactions to this, because people say it's impractical for a student to keep a dog in an apartment, but no one understands how lonely I feel. I don't make friends easily, I don't understand people and they don't understand me. I've always been great with dogs though, and I know I'll be able to look after one. Only problem is, no one else will let me.
Some smaller breeds can do perfectly fine at an appartment, actually. Like every other dog, they'll also need their walks, .. etc. But I doubt that would be a problem to you, since you look like a real animal lover.
wait to see how it's at university, and then go and adopt a dog if you still feel like doing it.
