Sure, we don’t speak the same language, but the sound of your voice brightens my whole day.

#6 Let me make new friends.

We might now get along in the end, but having some more friends that look and smell like me makes my life that much brighter.

#8 Understand when I need my alone time.
An Akita Inu lying on the pavement with its sad face photo with caption - I love you more than anything, but even though it's rare, I don't always want to play or cuddle. Don't be sad if I'd rather sleep on the cold tile floor instead of in your bed on hot summer nights, and be understanding if I don't want to play as much as the years go on.
#9 Show me your world.
An Akita Inu sitting in the backseat inside the car photo with caption - The house and yard might be the only places I ever see unless you let me come with you. A trip to the pet store, the park, or even just a ride in the car is exhilarating for me. I can't wait to see what you want to show me.
#10 Teach me new things.

#11 Pay attention if I don’t seem like myself.
An Akita Inu lying on the pavement with its tired face photo with caption - It might see like I'm just being lazy or stubborn, but I might not be feeling well. I can't get help for myself, and I need you to look out for me.
#12 Love me when I’m old just as much as you did when I was young.
An Akita Inu lying on the floor with its sad face photo with caption - I might not be the cute puppy that I once was, but I still love you just as much now as I did then. Please take care of me when my body doesn't work like it used to.
#13 I’m trying my best to make you happy I swear!
