Rules of Life -- as dogs would write them

This delightful text came in a forwarded email -- author unknown.

Live simply. 



Love generously. 



Care deeply. 



Speak kindly.

Smile because you’re happy.



When loved ones come home, always run to greet them. 




Remember to play!

Run, romp, and play daily. 

Never pass up the opportunity to encourage your friends. 



Relish the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face.



When you take a nap, stretch before rising. 



Thrive on attention -- giving and receiving -- and let people touch you. 



Avoid biting when a simple growl will do. 



When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body. 



Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.

Always be ready to make new friends.



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.

Enjoy now!
