Kennedy
He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his
life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last
beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion. ~

He is my other eyes that can see above the clouds; my other ears that
hear above the winds. He is the part of me that can reach out into the sea.
He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for being; by the
way he rests against my leg; by the way he thumps his tail at my smallest
smile; by the way he shows his hurt when I leave without taking him. (I
think it makes him sick with worry when he is not along to care for me.)
When I am wrong, he is delighted to forgive. When I am angry, he clowns to
make me smile. When I am happy, he is joy unbounded. When I am a fool, he
ignores it. When I succeed, he brags. Without him, I am only another man.
With him, I am all-powerful. He is loyalty itself. He has taught me the
meaning of devotion. With him, I know a secret comfort and a private peace.
He has brought me understanding where before I was ignorant. His head on my
knee can heal my human hurts. His presence by my side is protection against
my fears of dark and unknown things. He has promised to wait for me...
whenever... wherever - in case I need him. And I expect I will - as I always
have. He is just my dog. ~ Gene Hill
You can say any fool thing to a dog, and the dog will give you this
look that says, `My God, you're RIGHT! I NEVER would've thought of that!' ~
Dave Barry
If you are a dog and your owner suggests that you wear a sweater. . .

To err is human, to forgive, canine. ~ Author Unknown
Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or
discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be
back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace. ~ Milan
Kundera
I've seen a look in dogs' eyes, a quickly vanishing look of amazed
contempt, and I am convinced that basically dogs think humans are nuts. ~
John Steinbeck
I would rather see the portrait of a dog that I know, than all the
allegorical paintings they can show me in the world. ~ Samuel Johnson
Old dogs, like old shoes, are comfortable. They might be a bit out of
shape and a little worn around the edges, but they fit well. ~ Bonnie
Wilcox
The more people I meet the more I like my dog. ~ Author Unknown
When you feel dog tired at night, it may be because you've growled all
day long. ~ Author Unknown
You may have a dog that won't sit up, roll over or even cook breakfast,
not because she's too stupid to learn how but because she's too smart to
bother. ~ Rick Horowitz, Chicago Tribune
I took my dog for a walk ... all the way from New York to Florida ... I
said to him, "There, now you're done." ~ Steven Wright
A dog is not almost-human, and I know of no greater insult to the
canine race than to describe it as such. ~ John Holmes
Because animals seem to dwell in the present moment, because their own presence is so instinctive, their attention so unwavering, they offer us a different kind of compassion than humans do. Anyone is lucky to have both human and animal comfort in their lives. ~ Brenda Peterson
I love a dog. He does nothing for political reasons. ~ Will Rogers
The dog represents all that is best in man. ~ Etienne Charlet
No one appreciates the very special genius of your conversation as the
dog does. ~ Christopher Morley
The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish
world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful
or treacherous, is his dog. . . .He will kiss the hand that has no food to
offer; he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the
roughness of the world. . . .When all other friends desert, he remains. ~
George G Vest
There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face.

Dogs' lives are too short. Their only fault, really. ~ Agnes Sligh

The dog is the only animal that has seen his god. ~ Author Unknown
I am joy in a wooly coat, come to dance into your life, to make you laugh!
~ Julie Church
Any man with money to make the purchase can become dog's owner. But no
man — spend he ever so much coin and food and tact in the effort — may
become a dog's Master without the consent of the dog. Do you get the
difference? And he whom a dog once unreservedly accepts as Master is
forever that dog's God.
~ Albert Payson Terhune
We long for an affection altogether ignorant of our faults. Heaven has accorded this to us in the uncritical canine attachment.
