merledogs Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 These are some of my favourite dog quotes, they bring tears to my eyes cos I'm such a wuss "He is my other eyes that can see above the clouds; my other ears that hear above the winds. He is the part of me that can reach out into the sea. He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for being; by the way he rests against my leg; by the way he thumps his tail at my smallest smile; by the way he shows his hurt when I leave without taking him. (I think it makes him sick with worry when he is not along to care for me.) When I am wrong, he is delighted to forgive. When I am angry, he clowns to make me smile. When I am happy, he is joy unbounded. When I am a fool, he ignores it. When I succeed, he brags. Without him, I am only another man. With him, I am all-powerful. He is loyalty itself. He has taught me the meaning of devotion. With him, I know a secret comfort and a private peace. He has brought me understanding where before I was ignorant. His head on my knee can heal my human hurts. His presence by my side is protection against my fears of dark and unknown things. He has promised to wait for me... whenever... wherever - in case I need him. And I expect I will - as I always have. He is just my dog." - Gene Hill "If your dog doesn't like someone you probably shouldn't either." - Unknown "Old dogs, like old shoes, are comfortable. They might be a bit out of shape and a little worn around the edges, but they fit well." - Bonnie Wilcox ' "In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semihuman. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly a dog." - Edward Hoagland "Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace." - Milan Kundera Let's have your favourites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyMalc Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read. Groucho Marx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 “He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.” “The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog.” George Graham Vest "Women and cats will do as they please and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." Robert A. Heinlein "Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." Roger Caras "I wonder what goes through his mind when he sees us peeing in his water bowl."

cycas Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 I came across this one the other day which I rather liked: "Confining all of the exercise of a sighthound to leash work with a jogging human is like exercising an eagle on a string."
