I think the best dogs in the world are the ones who are raised inside a loving home with lots of ear scratches, treats, kisses, and love. And Macy shows that so well as does Lilly and Tiny. Macy will walk upto you out of nowhere and lay her chin on your leg and look up at you with those sad boxer eyes. And Lilly will raise up on her hind legs and lay her head side ways on you, she can't get too high since she's a bit small. And she will sit and give you kisses. And Tiny everytime my dad talks to her she wiggles her tail and gives him kisses. I say if you want a best friend get a dog and treat him with love and you will find no stronger bond than that with a well loved dog or cat for that matter.
