I believe dogs are great animals.

I love how they rush to the patio door and let out blood curdling yaps at the bushes — as if the bushes could hear them.

I also love how they can go from “get the F!@# off my lawn” to “I love you, pet me, and take me outside” in a split second. They don’t need a “cool down” period or “space.” Dogs just go.

In a sense, I wish I could move forward through life just as effectively as a dog.
