\u00a0Think about what you could learn from your dog:<\/p>\n

– When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.<\/p>\n

– Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.<\/p>\n

– When it’s in your best interest, practice obedience.<\/p>\n

– Let others know when they’ve invaded your territory.<\/p>\n

– Take naps and stretch before rising.<\/p>\n

– Run, romp, and play daily.<\/p>\n

– Thrive on attention and let people touch you.<\/p>\n

– Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.<\/p>\n

– On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.<\/p>\n

– On hot days, drink lots of water and lay under a shady tree.<\/p>\n

– When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body.<\/p>\n

– No matter how often you’re scolded, don’t buy into the guilt thing and pout — run right back and make friends.<\/p>\n

– Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.<\/p>\n

– Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Stop when you have had enough.<\/p>\n

– Be loyal.<\/p>\n

– Never pretend to be something you’re not.<\/p>\n

– If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
