Doggy wisdom
"People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life – like loving everybody and being nice, right? Well, dogs already know how to do that:
• Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly.
• When your loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
• Run, romp, and play daily.
• Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
• When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
• If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
• When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently.
• Be faithful.
