Things we Can Learn from Our Pets * 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. *When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.  * 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. * Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. * 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. * Thrive on attention and let people touch you. * Avoid biting when a simple growl will do. * On hot days, drink lots of water and lay under a shady tree. * When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body. * No matter how often you're scolded, don't buy into the guilt thing and pout...run right back and make friends. * Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
