Live simply.
Love generously.
Care deeply.
Speak kindly.


Remember, 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 the 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.
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Stop when you have had enough.
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.

Being always grateful for each new day and for the blessing of you.

ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY

A Dog's Purpose
 
A Dog's Purpose, (from a 6-year-old)
Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine

a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker.

The dog's owners, Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their

little boy, Shane, were all very attached to Belker,

And they were hoping for a miracle.

I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer.

I told the familywe couldn't do anything for Belker,

and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for

the old dog in their home.

As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they

thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to

observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane

might learn something from the experience.
The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as

Belker's family surrounded him.

Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he

understood what was going on. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without

any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up ,"I know why."

Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me.

I'd never heard a more comforting explanation.

He said, "People are born so that they can learn how to live a good Life like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?" The six-year-old continued,
"Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."
