10 favours a dog asks of us:
- My life lasts on an average between 10 and 15 years. Every separation from you means suffering for me. Think about this before you decide whether or not to take me.
- Do not be angry with me for long, and don’t lock me up for punishment. Yu have your work, your pleasure, your hobbies – I only have you.
- Instill confidence in me. I thrive on it. Talk to me often! Even if I don’t understand the words, I do understand the tone of your voice.
- Know that, no matter how I am being treated, I shall never forget it. Keep in mind before you hit me, that my jaws could crush the knuckles of your hand with ease, but I don’t use them on you.
- Before you scold me when working with me, consider first – perhaps I was in the sun too long, perhaps I have a worn-out heart.
- Give me time to understand what you are asking of me.
- Take care of me when I am old, you too will be old one day.
- Be with me when the going is rough – everything is easier when you are beside me.
