If they cannot be entrusted with small responsibilities, how can they be entrusted with big ones? But there I go; Im just giving The Speech again! Maybe, instead, Ill just give everyone a copy of a very funny dog book I just read. Its called Too Proud to Beg by John T. Olson, pub-- a lished by Andrews McMeel Pub- lishing. One of the chapters has a simple comparative list to help you choose if ever it becomes a question between Me or the Dog For example: Old dog eats dry dog food; new person prefers lobster, Old dog carries slippers; new person carries personal debt at 21 percent. Old dog requires monthly , grooming-- new person ties up the bathroom daily. Old dog will pull you out of a burning house; new person is probably a very sound sleeper. Old dog has a shiny full length coat; new person wants a shiny full length coat, And while your dog cant cook; your new person probably cant, either! P.S.

And, even if its difficult. going the extra mile for a loyal friend will reap big rewards for you and the whole family. tempted to make in response: Now, wait a moment, let me get this straight: You are about to enter into the most important and hopefully enduring relationship of your life- - a relationship based not on blood but on love and trust.

Well, permit me to out the obvious... Even though Ive never given The Speech (lecturing people who just dont get it really doesnt work), I think it should be taught early in life in schools and churches everywhere. ConFrancis Battista lives at Best cern for the welfare of animals is Friends Animal Sanctuary and not a matter of misguided, sappy directs Best Friends animal ressentimentality. Rather, it is the cue programs around the core of issues like family values nt Personal Property Vehicles Animal shelters get calls like this every day. Variations on the theme include having a baby, moving across the country, get- ting a job. losing a job. etc. ow and the direction in which our society is headed. And although it may seem like a small thing (although certainly not to the pet in question), it is in small things such as these, where no one is watching, that true character emerges. If a person cant fulfill the simplest of obligations towards a family pet that is prepared to give total devotion unconditionally how can they hope to deal mean- - Fronds Boosts and one of Ns best friends. |
