It's in their emotional honesty, the way dogs study us - our fears, our courage, our love - that makes them our best friends and among the most loyal members of our family.
"I am because my little dog knows me." ~ Gertrude Stein
Lord Byron had this to say about dogs:
"They possess beauty without vanity...
"Strength without insolence...
"Courage without ferocity...
"And all the virtues of man...
"Without his vices."
We tend to see the best of ourselves in our dogs.
And we're lucky they don't judge us, but love us unconditionally.
