I love dogs too.
my family has recovered about 35 abandoned animals over the years. We get them fixed, wormed and back to health and find homes for them. unless we get attached to them, then we get a new pet. Our vet gives my parents an at cost discount because she knows what we do.

Yup - nothing better than being sad and having a pup to cheer you up! Their love is so unconditional isn't it? Great list! :-)

You know I share you "Dog" list (Canine Furpersons Becka & Sara) , but I feel it necessary to add a "Cat" list:

Must say in advance, you know I love my two cats....my list is based on their behaviors and I still love them despite their typical "cat" personalities.

1. I think they love us, but I
don't think they feel it is
always necessary to show it.

2. They are already happy...don't
feel the need to make us happy.

3. They're loyal when it suits
them.

4. They too have distinct
personalities.

5. They have no clue when you're
sad.

6. Some like to cuddle...some
could care less.

7. They don't miss you when you're
gone. They don't even seem to
know you weren't there.

8. When you come home, they glance
at you and then go back to
whatever they were doing.

9. Some like everybody...some like
nobody.

10.They don't play ball, but would
love to chase (and eat)
butterflies.

11.They like to go for walks
everywhere you would just as
soon they didn't.

12.Some like belly rubs...some
dare you to touch their belly
and face the "claw'
consequences.

13.They always make me smile.
