When we say something has “gone to the dogs,” we think it has gone badly, wrong or lost all the good things it had. However, I often think if I have “gone to the dogs,” I have learned some valuable lessons that take many of us years to learn. Maybe, if you’ve “gone to the dogs” things aren’t quite so bad. For example, you could:
Enjoy the simple pleasures of a walk.
Follow your instincts.
Never underestimate the value of a belly rub.
Be loyal and faithful.
Be quick to forgive.
Always drink plenty of water.
Sometimes it is best to just sit close and listen.
Avoid biting when a growl will do.
Keep digging until you find what you want.
Run and play daily.
When your loved ones come home, always run to greet them with enthusiasm and love.
Accept all of life’s treats with gratitude.
Life is short, pet often.
Love unconditionally.
Have a Dog Gone Great Day!
