We Should Live Like Dogs

There is a reason why dogs are called a man's best friend. It's because of how unbelievably loving a dog is. A dog is the only thing on this planet whose love is truly unconditional. It doesn't matter if you yell at your dog, leave your dog alone at home for a week, anything, when you return back to it it will still love you as if you did no wrong. That is a trait we can really learn from.

In fact, there are many traits of a dog that we can truly benefit to emulate. Besides being the most loving creature on this planet, dogs also seem to be the happiest. Most likely this happiness comes from their incredible outlook on life. They are excited about everything and everyone around them. They see the positive in it all. They see a stick on the ground as potential to be the greatest toy of all time. They see a stranger across the park as potential to be an amazing friend, so they eagerly run to them in hopes of what they might discover. They smell the ground, because they are curious and excited about what they could find. They don't take anything for granite, they love it all. So why don't we?

Another amazing trait about a dog is their selflessness.They don't love you because they want you to feed them or pet them or even love them back, they love you because they know you and me and all of us need to be loved. So they love. There is a reason why we choose dogs to be our service animals, because they are selfless. They are willing to work for us. They are willing to serve us. They are willing to do anything they can to help us, because it's in their nature. They are naturally selfless beings.

When you truly take the time to observe a dog and its behaviors it is truly remarkable what you will see. There is a lot that we can learn from them.
