Things We Can Learn From A Dog ever pass the opportunity to go for a joyride Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy When loved ones come home, always run to greet them When it's in your best interest, practice obedience Let others know when they have invaded your territory Take naps and scratch before rising Run, romp, and play daily Eat with gusto and enthusiasm Be loyal Never pretend to be something you're not When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle her/him gently Thrive on attention and let people touch you On hot days, drink lots of water and lay under a shady tree When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body No matter how often you are scolded, don't buy into the guilt and pout.....run right back and make friends Delight in the simple joy of a long walk
