Dogs Are Better Than The Whole Of Mankind

Madame de Stael once said "The more I see of men, the more I like dogs." My father prescribed to that philosophy. Towards the end of his life, Pops spent much more time with his dogs than he did people. The more I am around people, especially working in retail, I am beginning to be a believer as well. I have better conversations with Molly than I do the majority of the people I run across in a days time. She is more personable and she listens much better and shows more concern. All she asks for in return is a few belly rubs and to be walked whenever she so commands it. It is probably a good thing she can't talk.
