IF A DOG WERE YOUR TEACHER, you would learn stuff like this:

-When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
-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 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.
-Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
-Avoid biting, when a simple growl will do.
-On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
-On hot days, drink lots of water and lay under a shady tree.
-When you're happy, dance around and wiggle 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.
-Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.
-Stop when you have had enough. (Don't know about that one)
-Be loyal.
-Never pretend to be something you're not.
-If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
This one is the best...
-When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and
nuzzle them gently.....
