JungleTart's Good Stuff: Friendship is God's Special Way of Loving Us Through Someone Else.

From My Daily Pug Calendar!

When you really want to put a dog at ease, rub her gently under the chin. Among dogs, this is a sign of respect and love, and it's the way puppies greet adults.

Praise & reward your dog whenever possible.

"He is my most sincere admirer; he loves me though he has never read my work!" - Rudyard Kipling of his cocker spaniel

"The greater love is a mother's; then comes a dog's; then a sweetheart's. - Polish proverb

"Two dogs may be twice the fun, but it is important that each dog has an individual relationship with you."
