Ten Commandments of a responsible pet owner
1. My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years. Any separation from you will be very painful.

2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3. Place your trust in me ā€“ it is crucial for my well-being

4. Donā€™t be angry with me for long, and donā€™t lock me up for my punishment. You have your work, your friends, and your entertainment. I have only you!

5. Talk to me. Even if I donā€™t understand your words, I understand your voice when itā€™s speaking to me.

6. Be aware that however you treat me, Iā€™ll NEVER forget it.

7. Before you hit me, remember that I have teeth that could easily crush the bones in your hand, but I choose not to bite you.

8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps Iā€™m not getting the right food, Iā€™ve been out in the sun too long, or my heart may be getting old and weak.

9. Take care of me when I get old. You, too, will grow old.

10. Go with me on difficult journeys. Never say, ā€œI canā€™t bear to watch itā€ or, ā€œLet it happen on my absence.ā€ Everything is easier for ME if you are there. Remember, I love you.

me too. we had a rough experience with Duke this past weekend ( all is fine now ) and my cousin emailed this poem to me.. I could not sleep all weekend and all I kept saying to her was I just wish he could talk and tell me what is wrong. I cherish my Duke! :heart:
