we can learn a lot from a dog!

Published Jul. 20, 2008

If a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.

Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.

Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure Ecstasy.

Take naps.

Stretch before rising.

Run, romp, and play daily.

Thrive on attention and let people touch you.

Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.

 On warm days, stop to lie on your back on th e grass.

On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.

 When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.

 Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.

 Be loyal.

 Never pretend to be something you're not.

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.

ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY!

;-D

And Pee on every tree in sight.

Very good blog, Hal. There is so much we can learn from dogs. I'm catching up on everything this morning, as my computer crashed yestday. Have a great week.

True words.. sometimes we all need to be reminded *smile*

A dog blog is always cool. Great message and love the black lab.

Dogs are really wonderful creatures. I have mine in a 300 sq/ft area in the back yard. I used to let my dogs run free, and all of us did, but not, after some bad experiences, we don't. The cats still do roam, killing my song birds and moles. I used to let my loose too. We get on here and howl just like the dogs do when something comes around.

Lol @ CTR!

Dogs rule!!!

Very true.

Yep, yep, we COULD learn a lot from a dog...
