Be honest. When was the last time you ghosted someone? Don’t lie (we have special canine senses for this sort of thing). The texts from the crazy guy on Tinder you ignored? The boring girl on OK Cupid whose emails you blocked? As much as we hate to admit it, we’ve all done it at least once. However, the next time you feel like flaking on someone, use your dog to concoct the perfect excuse. After all, isn’t that what dogs are for? Below, 13 dog-approved excuses for ignoring that next text.
