Dogs Are Marvelous 'Life Teachers'

“Why does watching a dog be a dog,

Always fill one with happiness?”

Jonathan Safran Foer

My dogs teach me something

Just about each and every day

The dog featured in this video

Teaches in such a marvelous way

This wondrously inspiring dog’s name is ‘Chica’

This canine has no eyes, but yet, she makes me see

That life truly is, whatever we make of it, ourselves

And there is no better ‘life teacher’ than a dog for me

Why does watching a dog be a dog,

Always fill one with happiness?

Because unlike we human beings,

Dogs know how to live life, with zest.

Watch Chica's Amazing Video Below:

God gave us pets so we can learn from these fine furry friends. my cat tries to teach me how to chill and relax everyday. Now if I would only listen...
Thank you Ed for the poetic reminder.

They sure do. No matter how badly they are hurting, they want to be a member of the pack. We humans should have said it's upbeat personalities as dogs.

Some of my blind friends seem to be more upbeat than the general public. It may be their counter for depression.
