10 Things I’ve Learned at the Dog Park.


I am borrowing this from www.breaktheillusion.com. It was very well written, and it does have a really good message! I'll let Davie take it from here!

  1. If you wag your tail, people will pet you. We don’t have tails, but we do have the human equivalent: a smile. Use it! Especially if you want to make new friends.
  2. If you love someone, let them know. Dogs have no problem expressing their affection. We could use some of that.
  3. There’s no such thing as strangers. I’ve had so many unmet dogs jump up on my lap and plop down. We’re all just friends, brothers and sisters that haven’t yet met.
  4. You don’t need much to be happy. Dogs are really, really happy. Interestingly enough, few are standing in line for an iPhone 4. Hmm.
  5. You’re never too old to play. Even the elderly canines aren’t too sophisticated to chase a ball and get down and dirty.
  6. There’s nothing wrong with sticking your face in someone else’s ass. I’ve been saying this for years…
  7. Everything is an adventure. More accurately, everything can be an adventure – if we allow ourselves to see it as such. I still haven’t heard a dog complain that he’s bored.
  8. Give lots of hugs and kisses. They are a renewable resource.
  9. Homosexuality is natural. I’ve seen so many male dogs hump each other relentlessly. And none of the other dogs care, protest or commit hate crimes when it happens.
  10. A full belly and a good nap are two of life’s greatest pleasures. Enough said.
