Very nice. I'm pretty much like a dog! Ha ha, a "free spirit", that's what my dad says. ;)

Very nice :) I used to have a neighbor who was a highly intelligent vice president of a some sort of chemical company. He firmly believed that the world would be a much better place if it was run by dogs. He was a wonderful man to be around, and I am sure he would agree with this whole-heartedly.

I knew there was a reason I like most dogs better than people!

now if more people were like dogs - think of what a better world this would be?

My dogs have taught me so much about how to enjoy life and how to love and be loved. They are a wonderful example for Kids, and I know that my son would not be the wonderful, sweet boy he is if not for the love of three very special Goldens as he was growing up.

Thanks for sharing this - and give Jada a special kiss from me - I just love her sweet face!
