If a Dog Were Your Teacher …This Is Beautiful
If a Dog were your 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 car ride.
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.
As you enjoy the wind in your face, do not restrict your capacity to drool.
When it’s in your best interest — practice obedience.
Let others know when they’ve invaded your territory.
Take naps and stretch before rising.
Run, romp, and play daily, if not by the minute.
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 cool grass.
On hot days, drink lots of water and lay under a tree.
When you take a drink of water, find a human to drip the extra on.
When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
No matter how often or severely you’re scolded, don’t buy into the guilt thing and pout…run right back and make friends.
Delight in the simple joys of a long walk.
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Don’t stop when you’ve had enough.
Be loyal.
Tolerate cats — humans love that.
If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it, where ever that leads you.
When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.
