If a dog was your teacher, you would learn stuff like: 
  > When loved ones come home, always run to greet them. 
 > When it's in your best interest, practice obedience. 
 > Let others know when they've invaded your territory. 
 > Take naps.
 > Run, romp, and play daily. 
 > Avoid biting when a simple growl will do. 
 > On hot days, drink lots of water, and lie under a shady tree. 
 > When you're happy, dance around, and wag your entire body. 
 > Delight in the simple joy of a long walk. 
 > Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Stop when you have had enough. 
 > Be loyal. Never pretend to be something you're not. 
 > When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently.
 > When you are having a bad day, lick your balls.
