This light-hearted poem was published in Hilton Veterinary Hospital's latest newsletter. It proclaims the character of a domestic dog and also reminds us as the year winds down and the silly season approaches that humour can relieve stress. Oh and also, give your dog more love for Christmas, that is what he/she really wants!
Thank you to Hilton Veterinary Hospital for sharing.
Inner Peace
If you can start the day without caffeine,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles.
If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without alcohol,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
You are probably the family dog!
