Lessons My Dog Taught Me

1. Life is short, live every moment like it’s your first!

2. Bread is delicious, any diet that tells you otherwise is wrong.

Bandit the time we ran out of food and I had to improvise for a few hours until the pet store opened (he didn’t seem to mind)

3. Elderly individuals are universal grandparents, they all want to give and receive affection (but do so gently) they also have the best snacks.

The universe blesses us with individuals who love us unconditionally (like these two who also spoil him..unconditionally)
On a scale of 1 to spoiled…

4. The world is less scary when we’re together.

5. It’s always a good time for a road trip!

6. Be kind, always, and when they’re unkind to you, forgive them they probably haven’t gotten enough kisses today (or ear scratchies or they’re hungry).

7. Find someone who doesn’t mind flipping your ears back for you.

8. make friends often.

9. There is nothing a walk around the neighborhood can’t cure.

10. Home is wherever I’m with you.
