I would like to visit a dog's mind to know what he's thinking and feeling.
From Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
When I was very young, my nanny was a big Newfoundland dog... whose task was to keep me from drowning.
People acquire a dog, don't understand it, can't train it, get fed up, and... offer it for adoption, hoping to pass on the problem to somebody else. But nobody wants a problem dog.
No other creatures of the savannah sleep as deeply or as soundly as lions, but after all, lions are the main reason for not sleeping soundly.
Besides individual things like thunder and gunshots, what dogs fear most is not belonging, being alone.
Dogs like to learn stuff, if not from another dog, then people are OK... They love activity, playing, interesting walks, and just belonging, being together.
