Some Feel-Good News About Dog to Brighten Your Day

Dog

 I know you’re probably thinking, “Wait, so dogs are people too?” That’s a big part of why I want to share this article. According to a new study, dogs are smart, loving, and friendly. This is a big deal if you ask me. I am a dog person. I have been for at least 15 years. It is hard to believe that I am really that old.

That is the exact reason I also want to share this article because I think dogs are the perfect metaphor for the human condition. I don't think we're as smart, loving, and friendly as we think we are. We're just animals. And as much as we try to believe that we are, we're just animals too. But that doesn't mean we have to let ourselves go. In fact, I would hate to think that anyone could really know the difference.


I have never met a dog that I found to be any friendlier than my own.


I have never met a dog that I could put my trust in to protect me. And I also have never met a dog that I could tell myself I knew would be loyal. No matter how many times I tell myself that dog, no matter how much I try to tell myself that I am not a fool, I know for sure that dog will not leave me. That is what I believe.


I think that’s one of those things many of us are unaware of until we look around and see it. We may think we know the dog we’ve owned, but we don’t. I mean, we’re aware of the dog’s personality, but we’re not aware of the dog’s soul. And while we may try to pretend we know dogs, we don’t know for sure.


We’re not saying I don’t like to fool around with dogs, but this is a little different. Like you said, I don’t know dogs. I’m not sure whether I love it or hate it, whether I think it is a good dog or bad, but I do know that I have a dog that I have adored for 20+ years.


We are not even talking about the same dog.

So if we do know dogs, we also know the dog's personality. We know this because the dog's life and soul come from the owner. And while the owner may not know the dog very well, we are sure that the dog has its own personality. So if you have a dog that's been in the family for 20 years, they can be just as intense, if not more so, than your dog.


One of the things that make dogs so endearing is that they are so loyal to their owners. That is one of the reasons why they are such an important part of our life. But there is a reason that we love them so much. The dog's happiness comes from the owner. Sure, it might also come from the dog, but that doesn’t matter. The dog is the same now as it was 20 years ago.
