1) Sometimes when I pass a person walking their dog, I smile at the dog and forget to acknowledge the person.

2) At outdoor events at which it's permissible to bring dogs, I look forward to dog-watching even more than people-watching.

3) On more than one occasion I've thought that the world would be a better place if people were more like dogs.

4) I have Dog of The Day bookmarked on the "Personal Bar" in my browser, at both home and work.
