We Reall Never Own a Dog, We are Pet Guardians

I used to thing, with pride overflowing, that my brown dog was mine. Now I know better. We never really own a dog as much as he owns us.

Where he led I would follow without fear, and even now, remembering how he would curl up with his back against my bedroom door, I know again how it was to feel safe and protected from anything and anyone.

Once when I was very small and sick my mother put him in bed with me against everyone's advice. "They need each other," she said, and that was that.

She understood brown dogs and their peculiar magic.

Loyal Friend

The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog...When all other friends desert, he remains.

Things I Learned From My Dog

Things I learned from my dog
never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in my face to be pure ecstasy.
When loved ones come home, I will always run to greet them.
Be loyal.
Never pretends to be something I am not.
When someone is having a bad day, I will be silent, sit close by, and comfort them gently.
Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
Wag more, bark less.
On hot days, take lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.

Lazy Driver Walks Dog

Driver Fined After Walking Dog While In Car
Dog’s Owner Acknowledged There Was ‘Element Of Laziness’

Posted: 10:04 am EST March 2,2010Updated: 2:51 pm EST March 2,2010

LONDON — An English dog owner has been fined after taking his pet for a stroll while driving next to him in his car. Prosecutors said Paul Railton was spotted driving at low speed along a country lane in December, holding his dog’s leash through the car window as the animal trotted alongside. Railton pleaded guilty Monday to not being in proper control of a vehicle. His lawyer, Paul Donoghue, said 23-year-old Railton acknowledged “it was a silly thing to do and there was an element of laziness” while exercising his lurcher, a type of crossbred sighthound. Railton was ordered by magistrates in Consett, northeast England, to pay a 66 pound ($100) fine, plus costs. He also received three more penalty points on his license and is now barred from driving for six months.
