If a dog was your teacher Part 9

If a dog was your teacher,
these are some of the lessons you might learn...

When loved ones come home, always run to greet themNever pass up the opportunity to go for a joyrideAllow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face,
to be pure ecstasy
When it's in your best interest,
practice obedienceLet others know when they've invaded your territoryTake naps and stretch before risingRun romp and play daily
Thrive on attention and let people touch youAvoid biting, when a simple growl will doOn warm days stop to lie on your back on the grassOn hot days drink lots of water and lay under a shady treeWhen 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 walkEat with gusto and enthusiasmStop when you have had enoughBe loyalNever pretend to be something you're not
If what you want lies buried,
dig until you find itWhen someone is having a bad day,
be silent....
...sit close by
...and nuzzle them gently.
