Canine Wisdom for the Current Age

Anyone can teach their dog to sit, stay and speak, but did you ever stop to think about what your dog can teach you?

When I was at the shelter looking for a dog, Rudy (formerly known as Bob) was not my first, second or third choice. He seemed unruly, wild-eyed and agitated, but the staff encouraged me to just take him outside and give him a 3-day trial. Outside of the shelter and once in my home, he was much different. In addition to unconditional love and loyalty, Rudy taught me to dig deeper, to take a closer look to find the true "diamond in the ruff," whether you're dealing with pets or people.
What have you learned from your pets?
