1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years.
Any separation from you is likely to be painful.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.
4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as
punishment. You have your work, your friends, your
entertainment, but I have only you.
5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do
understand your voice when speaking to me.
6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.
7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that
I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.
8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative,
ask yourself if something might be bothering me.
Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in
the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.
9. Please take care of me when I grow old.
You too, will grow old.
10 On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please.
Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face
this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there,
because I love you so.
~Take a moment today to thank God for your pets.
Enjoy and take good care of them.
Life would be a much duller, less joyful experience
without God's critters.
We do not have to wait for Heaven, to be surrounded
by hope, love, and joyfulness. It is here on earth and
has four legs!

To All Dog Lovers
DOG - To all Dog Lovers
A friend of mine sent this to me and I thought you might like this.
The K9 above is Brutus, a military K9 at
McChord.. He's huge - part Boxer and part
British Bull Mastiff and tops the scales at
200 lbs. His handler took the picture. Brutus
is running toward me because he knows
I have some Milk Bone treats, so he's
slobbering away! I had to duck around a tree
just before he got to me in case he couldn't
stop, but he did. Brutus won the
Congressional Medal of Honor last year
from his tour in Iraq . His handler and four
other soldiers were taken hostage by insurgents.
Brutus and his handler communicate by sign
language and he gave Brutus the signal that
meant 'go away but come back and find me'.
The Iraqis paid no attention to Brutus. He
came back later and quietly tore the throat
out of one guard at one door and another
guard at another door. He then jumped against
one of the doors repeatedly (the guys were
being held in an old warehouse) until it opened.
He went in and untied his handler and they all
escaped. He's the first K9 to receive this honor.
If he knows you're ok, he's a big old lug and
wants to sit in your lap. Enjoys the company
of cats.. K-9 Congressional Medal of Honor
Winner.Thought you'd find this interesting.
Talk about animal intelligence and bonding
with humans!
