Man's Best Friend

I own three dogs: one pure bred Malamute, a Husky/Lab mix, and a Boxer/Beagle mix. All three dogs drive me crazy sometimes, and all three dogs are crazy about me.

I often play with these animals. Sometimes I wonder how much they think, and what they think about. I can tell that they dream, because they twitch when they sleep.

I can tell, also, that they know the difference between right and wrong - they especially know when they're in trouble. They play with each other, and have a very foreign communication amongst themselves.

When I look into their eyes, I see their mind. They have something behind those eyes; they have a soul. I don't know the depth at which they approach their life, but I know that these animals are beautifully created and I'm thankful each day for the loving relationship I have with my dogs.

They say that a diamond is a woman's best friend, and that a dog is a man's best friend. I can tell you that no diamond could take the place of these four-legged friends of mine.
