When I began dating my late wife, all those years ago, I had to be “approved” by her faithful companion Jessica (rescue Goldie mix). Jessica approved, and the marriage lasted over 34 years. Dogs know best in many cases…
“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.” Roger Caras
“Dogs and philosophers do the greatest good and get the fewest rewards.” Diogenes
“Because of the dog’s joyfulness, our own is increased. It is no small gift. It is not the least reason why we should honor as love the dog of our own life, and the dog down the street, and all the dogs not yet born.” Mary Oliver
“I looked up my family tree and found three dogs using it.” Rodney Dangerfield
“I’ve seen a look in dogs’ eyes, a quickly vanishing look of amazed contempt, and I am convinced that basically dogs think humans are nuts.” John Steinbeck
Dogs are also a great reason to stop dating altogether. Mine needs to be groomed every 4 weeks at 150.00 per groomer visit. He is also an allergy and seizure dog. Rx drugs, inoculations, vet visits and special diet dog food run 500-700.00 a month. Who has $$$ to date after paying for the dog???
My beloved pit/rot mix growled at the man who is now my husband, the first time they met. I should have listened to the dog – he was right about my still husband but long gone now.
