Reasons to be happy:

You know what it is like to love and be loved!
(Some people don't - but they've never had a pet.)

You have friends who care about you
(Otherwise you wouldn't be here!)

You know the secret of doggie bellyrubs
(They not only make a dog happy, they make the human happy, too!)

I recommend giving your dog an extra treat, just today, right now,
because that unexpected joy will be transferred to you!
