Lessons from pets: what have they taught you?

I’ve always noticed massive dogs and am drawn to them immediately. The THS experiences have taught me that every dog has his day, his appeal too. Some of the smallest have bowled me over and refused to be ignored or overlooked. This picture about a Yorkie is a case in point. So much comes from so little!

I can relate to this @Highfive :heart: my sister has chiahuahua and I developed a real soft spot for them after spending some time with them! I used to think they were loud and snappy but they’re so sweet (but also loud and snappy when feeling territorial :rofl:)

This is Noa, the old boy of the chihuahua crew, he likes to be held like a baby.

Is there a little dog in particular who first melted your heart?

Finding the right partner is one of the most important choices in life. How they treat pets is a very valuable pointer!
Was watching a murder series and the murderer had killed a pet parrot, as a child. Animal cruelty can be a pre cursor to human cruelty..
My wife was brought up with budgies whereas I always had dogs.. but whatever the pets how they get treated speaks volumes!

I’m dog sitting in Oxford. This one is very bright; he’s only six and an early reader! He just laps it up!

This post about how a dog is a game changer resonated with me. I wanted to share it with my tribe.

I’d like to introduce you to the latest recruit at the village police station in our Spanish home in Madrid Province.
Some are highly trained to battle against the toughest of criminals and assist in their detection and capture.
This one is quite over powering already and he’s clearly very young still.
He’s got me under his paw of the Law already!

Three In A Bed
The pets here love me,in the day, so jumping into bed at night makes so much sense. Offerings on the kitchen floor first thing in the morning at breakfast time are tributes to the Big Hairy Baldy One! (BHBO)
Who is adoring whom?
