It has been said that dogs are our best friends and with more than 80 million dogs across 44 million households, the characterization would seem to make sense. So with all of these fine furry creatures living with us, we have an opportunity to learn and grow from them. Dogs have a great temperament, they are happy to see us all the time, they love to play, they pay attention to us and their simple approach makes for great companions. While it is amazing how a dog can have such a positive impact on our lives we too can have a positive impact on others by following their example. It is an easy ask, we have a “role model” and we can get at it immediately. Let’s give a hug to our dog and get to it- we will be better for it!
