Once you have had a wonderful dog, a life without one, is a life diminished.
Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen.
No one appreciates the very special genius of your conversation as the dog does.
The better I get to know men, the more I find myself loving dogs.
You can usually tell that a man is good if he has a dog who loves him.

Dogs’ lives are too short. Their only fault, really.
Dogs are better than human beings because they know but do not tell.
A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.
The only creatures that are evolved enough to convey pure love are dogs and infants.

Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.
