Came across this beautiful sentiment in Hearts United for Animals.
To err is human, to forgive canine
A DOG'S BILL OF RIGHTS
I have the right to give and receive unconditional love
I have the right to a life that is beyond mere survival
I have the right to be trained so that I do not become the prisoner of my own misbehavior
I have the right to adequate food and medical care
I have the right to fresh air and green grass
I have the right to socialize with people and dogs outside of my own family
I have the right to special time with my people
I have the right to be bred responsibly, if at all
I have the right to be foolish and silly, and to make my person laugh
I have the right to earn my person's trust and to be trusted in return
I have the right to be forgiven
I have the right to die with dignity
I have the right to be remembered well and with love
