the three most awesome things about dogs

I have four malamute sled dogs and I have learned much about myself and my other fellow human pack animals.

1. Dogs are not fussy about what they eat. My eldest dog is 11, which means he's eaten the same bowl of kibble over 8000 times, and he's enthusiastic about it every single time. Another of my dogs, in the same day, ate a steaming pile of horseshit and an uncooked ribeye steak I left carelessly on the counter; he had the same look on his face in each case.

2. Regardless of the "mood" a dog is in, she is ready and willing to give you all the affection you could possible want. My female dog is a face licker. You might think you are fast enough to move your face and avoid a sloppy wet french dog kiss, but you would be wrong, as I have been on too many times than I care to remember.

3. Apologies to cat lovers here, but dogs are not cats. No further explanation required.
