Lessons from Indy- Wag More, Bark Less

This was played on the radio recently.

Lessons from Indy

By Paul H. Betancourt

               A few months ago I introduced you all to my dog, Indy. Riding around with Indy I have learned some interesting lessons I thought I would share with you.  Things like-

               -Great everyone personally.

-Roll down the windows once in a while and stick your head out. There is nothing like fresh air and the feel of the wind rushing though your hair.

-Give cats and catty people space.

-Enjoy your exercise with relish and enthusiasm. Make sure to sniff everything while you are out for a walk.

-When it is time for a nap; stretch out completely, preferably in the sun.

-What you are doing now is important, even if it is only taking a nap.

-When friends come home, let them know you are glad to see them.
There is nothing wrong with a little affection.

-Let them know you appreciate their cooking, even if it is only simple kibble.

-There is a lot to be said for loyalty.

-When you don’t know what to say, just being there is important.

For the record, Indy’s favorite bumper sticker is “Wag more, bark less.”
That’s probably a good reminder for all of us.

I hope you all have a great week!
