Dogs have it going on. As we are starting the new year, I am becoming more reflective regarding how I live my life. I have decided that I will start using cbd treats for dogs and take some lessons from my dog. I wanted to pass them on to you – maybe you or your kids will be inspired.

1. My chihuahua’s best friends were a bulldog, a pit bull and a cat! Talk about embracing diversity!

2. It’s the little things that matter. A pat on the head and a hug are far better than a new collar or toy.

3. Sometimes a growl is all that it takes to get your point across. You very rarely have to actually bite and that works great if you want to teach your dog obedience.

4. There is nothing more important than food to eat, shelter from the weather and being with those who love you.

5. Protect and guard your loved ones at all costs.

6. Walking in the sunshine is an event to be anticipated and savored.

7. When you need a nap, take it if you will like to do it with your  pet, just try an elevated dog bed so your pet can rest with you.

8. Drink lots of water.

9. There is nothing so comforting as sleeping next to someone you love.

10. When a loved one comes home, even if only at the end of the day, it is a cause for celebration.

I am also blessed with a wonderful husband who married us all and moved into the dad role with an ease that is awe inspiring. We live in Baton Rouge, Louisiana with our three pit bulls, Chihuahua (who rules the house) and two cats.

  • Aww, this is just too cute! Come to think of it, these are some of the basics people should be learning since childhood. Maybe kids want a dog (or any other pet) for a reason – not just a companion or pet, but someone to learn lessons with/from along the way as well :]
