\u201cDogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.\u201d No matter if your dog is coming up with the funniest ideas to persuade you to take a walk or turns into a scared-cat during a thunderstorm, there\u2019s always something beautiful to laugh about when you have a dog in your house.<\/p>\n The following quotes about dogs will show you why dogs have always been and will always remain man\u2019s best friend.<\/p>\n What is so beautiful about the following dog quotes is that they stem from authors whose dogs have truly inspired their lives. They all have come to realize what a wonderful and important addition a dog is to their lives. As a result, these authors have put their great love for their furry friend to paper. It is their eloquent and beautiful words that help us in finding the right words that describe how uniquely important our dogs are to us.<\/p>\n \u201cOwners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods.\u201d \u201cDogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It is without a doubt the best deal man has ever made. \u201e \u201cDogs are our link to paradise. They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring–it was peace.\u201c \u201cA person can learn a lot from a dog, even a loopy one like ours. Marley taught me about living each day with unbridled exuberance and joy, about seizing the moment and following your heart. He taught me to appreciate the simple things-a walk in the woods, a fresh snowfall, a nap in a shaft of winter sunlight. And as he grew old and achy, he taught me about optimism in the face of adversity. Mostly, he taught me about friendship and selflessness and, above all else, unwavering loyalty.\u201c \u201cThe very best thing about dogs is how they just know when you need them most, and they\u2019ll drop everything that they\u2019re doing to sit with you awhile.\u201c \u201cThe only creatures that are evolved enough to convey pure love are dogs and infants.\u201c “It is amazing how much love and laughter they bring into our lives and even how much closer we become with each other because of them.\u201c \u201cDogs are minor angels, and I don’t mean that facetiously. They love unconditionally, forgive immediately, are the truest of friends, willing to do anything that makes us happy, etcetera. If we attributed some of those qualities to a person we would say they are special. If they had ALL of them, we would call them angelic. But because it’s “only” a dog, we dismiss them as sweet or funny but little more. However when you think about it, what are the things that we most like in another human being? Many times those qualities are seen in our dogs every single day– we’re just so used to them that we pay no attention.\u201c \u201cWhen an eighty-five pound mammal licks your tears away, then tries to sit on your lap, it’s hard to feel sad.\u201c \u201cHappiness is a warm puppy.\u201c \u201cThe dog is the most faithful of animals and would be much esteemed were it not so common. Our Lord God has made His greatest gifts the commonest.\u201c \u201cYou can say any fool thing to a dog and the dog will just give you this look that says, ‘My GOSH, you’re RIGHT! I NEVER would’ve thought of that!\u201c \u201cThere is no faith which has never yet been broken, except that of a truly faithful dog\u201c \u201cPetting, scratching, and cuddling a dog could be as soothing to the mind and heart as deep meditation and almost as good for the soul as prayer.\u201c \u201cThey had buried him under our elm tree, they said \u2013 yet this was not totally true. For he really lay buried in my heart.\u201c \u201cDogs feel very strongly that they should always go with you in the car, in case the need should arise for them to bark violently at nothing right in your ear.\u201c \u201cIf you live with dogs, you’ll never run out of things to write about.\u201c \u201cPeople leave imprints on our lives, shaping who we become in much the same way that a symbol is pressed into the page of a book to tell you who it comes from. Dogs, however, leave paw prints on our lives and our souls, which are as unique as fingerprints in every way.\u201c \u201cIf I have any beliefs about immortality, it is that certain dogs I have known will go to heaven, and very, very few persons.\u201c \u201cNo matter how close we are to another person, few human relationships are as free from strife, disagreement, and frustration as is the relationship you have with a good dog. Few human beings give of themselves to another as a dog gives of itself. I also suspect that we cherish dogs because their unblemished souls make us wish – consciously or unconsciously – that we were as innocent as they are, and make us yearn for a place where innocence is universal and where the meanness, the betrayals, and the cruelties of this world are unknown.\u201c \u201cThe love between dog and man is idyllic. It knows no conflicts, no hair-raising scenes; it knows no development.\u201c \u201cSome of our greatest historical and artistic treasures we place with curators in museums; others we take for walks.\u201c \u201cI like dogs. You always know what a dog is thinking. It has four moods. Happy, sad, cross and concentrating. Also, dogs are faithful and they do not tell lies because they cannot talk.\u201c \u201cAs wonderful as dogs can be, they are famous for missing the point.\u201c \u201cIf I could be half the person my dog is, I’d be twice the human I am.\u201c \u201cIf you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and man.\u201c \u201cThe average dog is a nicer person than the average person.\u201c \u201cAny man with money to make the purchase may become a dog’s owner. But no man \u2013 spend he ever so much coin and food and tact in the effort \u2013 may become a dog’s Master without consent of the dog. Do you get the difference? And he whom a dog once unreservedly accepts as Master is forever that dog’s God.\u201c \u201cWhen you have dogs, you witness their uncomplaining acceptance of suffering, their bright desire to make the most of life in spite of the limitations of age and disease, their calm awareness of the approaching end when their final hours come. They accept death with a grace that I hope I will one day be brave enough to muster.\u201c \u201cI never met a man half so true as a dog. Treat a dog right, and he’ll treat you right. He’ll keep you company, be your friend, and never ask you no questions. Cats is different, but I never held that against ’em.\u201c \u201cDogs never bite me. Just humans.\u201c \u201cThe dog\u2019s agenda is simple, fathomable, overt: I want. ‘I want to go out, come in, eat something, lie here, play with that, kiss you.’ There are no ulterior motives with a dog, no mind games, no second-guessing, no complicated negotiations or bargains, and no guilt trips or grudges if a request is denied.\u201c \u201cQuesters of the truth, that\u2019s who dogs are; seekers after the invisible scent of another being\u2019s authentic core.\u201c \u201cThe more boys I meet the more I love my dog.\u201c \u201cUntil one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.\u201c \u201cWhoever said you can’t buy Happiness forgot little puppies.\u201c “Dogs act exactly the way we would act if we had no shame.” \u201cMy cats inspire me daily. They inspire me to get a dog!\u201c \u201c[Speaking about Washington, DC.] You want a friend in this city? Get a dog!\u201c \u201cI sometimes look into the face of my dog Stan and see a wistful sadness and existential angst, when all he is actually doing is slowly scanning the ceiling for flies.\u201c \u201cWe are alone, absolutely alone on this chance planet; and amid all the forms of life that surround us, not one, excepting the dog has made an alliance with us.\u201c \u201cI have found that when you are deeply troubled, there are things you get from the silent devoted companionship of a dog that you can get from no other source.\u201c \u201cThe dog has seldom been successful in pulling man up to its level of sagacity, but man has frequently dragged the dog down to his.\u201c “The pug is living proof that God has a sense of humor.” \u201cFew human beings give of themselves to another as a dog gives of itself.\u201c \u201cThe dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven not man’s.\u201c \u201cOver the years I’ve come to appreciate how animals enter our lives prepared to teach and far from being burdened by an inability to speak they have many different ways to communicate. It is up to us to listen more than hear, to look into more than past.\u201c \u201cA dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.\u201c \u201cDiscipline isn’t about showing a dog who’s boss; it’s about taking responsibility for a living creature you have brought into your world.\u201c “A dog is the only thing that can mend a crack in your broken heart.” \u201cBecause dogs live in the present. Because dogs don’t hold grudges. Because dogs let go of all their anger daily, hourly, and never let it fester. They absolve and forgive with each passing minute. Every turn of a corner is the opportunity for a clean slate. Every bounce of a ball brings joy and the promise of a fresh chase.\u201c \u201cOur perfect companions never have fewer than four feet.\u201c \u201cIn my lap I had my dear little pug, the smell of whose ears will always be sweeter to me than all the perfumes of Araby and the scent of heliotrope combined.\u201c \u201cPerhaps one central reason for loving dogs is that they take us away from this obsession with ourselves. When our thoughts start to go in circles, and we seem unable to break away, wondering what horrible event the future holds for us, the dog opens a window into the delight of the moment.\u201c \u201cWhat do dogs do on their day off? Can’t lie around \u2013 that’s their job!\u201c \u201cOnce you have had a wonderful dog, a life without one, is a life diminished.\u201c \u201cGolden retrievers are not bred to be guard dogs, and considering the size of their hearts and their irrepressible joy in life, they are less likely to bite than to bark, less likely to bark than to lick a hand in greeting. In spite of their size, they think they are lap dogs, and in spite of being dogs, they think they are also human, and nearly every human they meet is judged to have the potential to be a boon companion who might, at many moment, cry, ‘Let’s go!’ and lead them on a great adventure.\u201c \u201cThe greatest pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him, and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself, too.\u201c \u201cBeing a hero to someone, even if it is a dog, is a feeling like no other. Though it can be frustrating, it can be the most rewarding thing to give someone a second chance at a happy life.\u201c \u201cIf there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went.\u201c \u201cIn a dog’s life, some plaster would fall, some cushions would open, some rugs would shred. Like any relationship, this one had its costs. They were costs we came to accept and balance against the joy and amusement and protection and companionship he gave us.\u201c \u201cA dog is like a person \u2013 he needs a job and a family to be what he\u2019s meant to be.\u201c \u201cYou can always trust a dog that likes peanut butter.\u201c \u201cSometimes, it turns out, the most important decisions in life are made by your dog.\u201c
