Because of the dog's joyfulness, our own is increased. It is no small gift.
It is not the least reason why we should honor as well as love the dog of our own life, and the dog down the street, and all the dogs not yet born.
What would the world be like without music or rivers or the green and tender grass?
What would this world be like without dogs ?

Dogs are gifted in so many ways.
They can guide us in ways we never knew.

Notice how well a dog does when their life is balanced. Dogs need their exercise, a dose of love, and structure to their daily routine, and so do we. When we balance our life, the stress fades to the background and we enjoy life that much more.

Our relationships with others nurture our soul. We may neglect our friends because of our work or other commitments or interests.
When we look to our dogs, they need our connection on a daily basis. They need our love, time, and attention. When we stay connected with others, it feeds our soul and helps to lead us to a long life.

Dogs live for today, and so can we. We can appreciate every moment as it comes and be grateful for what we have. Like all animals, when we live in the present, we can have more enthusiasm, joy for life, and less worry.

When you study animal packs, there is rarely a conflict, as the members of the pack solve their problems and move on. They don’t hold a grudge or worry about what happened yesterday.
Forgiveness gives us back our power, as we regain a sense of wholeness, peace, and the ability to move on with our lives.

Dogs understand what is going on beneath the surface, as they are led by their instincts and rely on their gut reactions. We have these clues as well. Hone in on your intuition and it will guide you to a life of peace and serenity.

Have you ever noticed how a dog finds everyday life exciting? They can’t wait to eat, go for their walk, see you come home, or greet a visitor. We can learn so much by observing how our pets have enthusiasm for the simple joys of everyday life.

Everyday can be special for us as well. When we take the time to look, we may find our joy is still there waiting to be rediscovered..

In quiet moments between day and night,
A heartbeat echoes, pure and bright.
With eyes that glow like stars above,
A soul that knows only boundless love.

Through storms and shadows, they stand tall,
With whispers of comfort, they hear our call.
In every wag and every paw,
Loyalty shines, a beautiful law.

When silence falls and dreams take flight,
They lie beside us, a peaceful sight.
Through crowded days or lonely nights,
Their gentle presence ignites our lights.

So let us honor the love they share,
For in their hearts, they always care.
With gratitude, we hold them near,
Our loyal friends, forever dear ..

Good Saturday morning 🤗
______
While everything in life is constantly changing and people can come and go, your dog will never judge you and will stick by your side through all of life’s dramas.
In fact, they’re likely to pick up on those times when you need a pal. They’ll rush to your side to comfort you, because that’s what friends are for!

Our dogs can enjoy Thanksgiving with us, remember that not all of our favorites are safe for dogs. Here is a short list of the good and bad, and when in doubt Google it 😉
Check labels for Xylitol & Birch Sugar, these are toxic.

Check Out this Great Fitness Class!

Taught by Kelly Daniels
"Did you know that there are a number of fitness foundation movement skills? This includes weight shifting, and movement forwards, backwards, sideways, and around items like a cone.

These foundation movement skills are the pre-requisites for other fitness skills. In the photo Evo is showing the ipsilateral fitness exercise. The foundation movement skill for this is sideways movement.

We're going to work on ALL the foundation movement skills in my upcoming Canine Fitness Class: Targeting Fitness"
