June 8 celebrates National Best Friends Day, a day to honor that one special being you call your “best friend”.  This day is a time to show them how much you appreciate them, how special and important they are to you and how you cherish their friendship.

“Best friends share extremely strong interpersonal ties with each other.”  (Wikipedia)

Everyone has that one close friend, the one that you can count on to be there for you, the one you want to share your secrets with, the one you want to do fun things with, the one you want to just hang out with, that one person is your best friend. And let’s face it: sometimes this Best Friend is not even human! No matter how we look or how moody we are, our pets offer us unconditional love and for many people, they support us through difficult times, understanding us better than we do ourselves

“When it hurts to look back and you’re scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best  friend will be there.”                (author unknown)

HOW TO OBSERVE

Celebrate National Best Friends Day by letting your best friends know how much they mean to you!  Use #BestFriendsDay to post on social media. 

A great example of the bond between a proud owner and her dog

DOA being the only female in the litter, was able to stand her ground against her 3 brothers. She was eventually adopted by a woman who took her as a birthday present to herself.
