"That dress is enough to make a good dog turn bad." ## brandon_w (admin) · 2008-09-16T17:03:41.000Z "Heaven goes by favour. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in." - Mark Twain "If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man." - Mark Twain "A dog is the only thing on earth that will love you more than you love yourself." -Josh Billings "What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight, what counts is the size of the fight in the dog." -Mark Twain "The reason dogs have so many friends is because they wag their tails instead of their tongues." -Unknown "To his dog, every man is Napoleon; hence the constant popularity of dogs." - Aldous Huxley "There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face." - Ben Williams "The more people I meet the more I like my dog." - Unknown "If your dog is fat, you aren't getting enough excercise." - Unknown "A man's soul can be judged by the way he treats his dog." - Charles Doran "A house without either a cat or a dog is the house of a scoundrel." - Portuguese Proverb "If your dog doesn't like someone you probably shouldn't either." - Unknown "Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace." - Milan Kundera "Better not take a dog on the space shuttle, because if he sticks his head out when you're coming home his face might burn up." - "DEEP THOUGHTS" by Jack Handy "Dogs feel very strongly that they should always go with you in the car, in case the need should arise for them to bark violently at nothing right in your ear." - Dave Barry I stole all of those from the internet. ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2008-09-16T17:05:09.000Z omg! Deep Thoughts! thats awesome. ## sunyata · 2008-09-16T17:31:18.000Z Those are all awesome, Brandon. The one by Dave Barry cracked me up! ## _dlroberts · 2008-09-16T17:40:09.000Z Nice Brandon...makes my quote seem pretty crappy. :-P This is my fav: "Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace." ## brandon_w (admin) · 2008-09-16T17:45:59.000Z There are plenty more out there to dig up if you want them. You could have a post that looks just like that. I think the Portuguese proverb might be my favorite, people who don't have a cat or dog always have me suspicious. ## Leonberger (admin) · 2008-09-16T20:27:17.000Z I posted a part of this a while back, but here goes the full thing "Near this spot Are deposited the Remains of one Who possessed Beauty Without Vanity, Strength without Insolence, Courage without Ferocity, And all the Virtues of Man Without his Vices. This Praise, which would be unmeaning flattery If inscribed over Human Ashes, Is but a just tribute to the Memory of "Boatswain," a Dog Who was born at Newfoundland, May, 1803, And died at Newstead Abbey Nov. 18, 1808." - Lord Byron ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2008-09-16T21:35:28.000Z that is beautiful, Rui... :) ## JessicaRabbit (admin) · 2008-09-16T22:32:04.000Z Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole. Roger Caras ## JessicaRabbit (admin) · 2008-09-16T22:33:30.000Z Women and cats do as they damned well please, and men and dogs had best learn to live with it. Alan Holbrook ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2008-09-17T00:50:16.000Z "What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight, what counts is the size of the fight in the dog." -Mark Twain Can someone say...Shiba? lol :) ~ ## ivanmeza03 · 2008-09-17T00:53:42.000Z Dogs are miracles with paws. ~Attributed to Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy and this one is so true 8/ Dogs' lives are too short. Their only fault, really. ~Agnes Sligh Turnbull ## Leonberger (admin) · 2008-09-17T06:37:35.000Z Brandon got me going with the proverb... "A dog that has been bit by a snake will be afraid of a sausage" Brazilian proverb "Beware of the man that doesn't talk and the dog that doesn't bark" Portuguese proverb "A dog's nose and a person's butt will never be warm" Portuguese proverb ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2008-09-17T16:45:24.000Z Rui...what's up with that last one? lol ~ ## Leonberger (admin) · 2008-09-17T16:51:56.000Z Beats me, it's popular knowledge! Like all popular knowledge it's easy to remember and sometimes hard to explain. ## Leonberger (admin) · 2008-10-01T21:03:20.000Z I lie belly-up In the sunshine, happier than You ever will be. Today I sniffed Many dog butts — I celebrate By kissing your face. I sound the alarm! Paperboy — come to kill us all — Look! Look! Look! Look! Look! I sound the alarm! Garbage man — come to kill us all — Look! Look! Look! Look! Look! I lift my leg and Whiz on each bush. Hello, Spot — Sniff this and weep. I Hate my choke chain — Look, world, they strangle me! Ack Ack Ack Ack Ack Ack! Sleeping here, my chin On your foot — no greater bliss — well, Maybe catching cats. Look in my eyes and Deny it. No human could Love you as much I do. Anonymous ## Leonberger (admin) · 2008-10-01T21:11:35.000Z 'Tis sweet to hear the watch dog's honest bark Bay deep-mouthed welcome as we draw near home; 'tis sweet to know there is an eye will mark Our coming and look brighter when we come. Lord Byron With eye upraised his master's look to scan, The joy, the solace, and the aid of man: The rich man's guardian and the poor man's friend, The only creature faithful to the end. George Crabbe Thorns may hurt you, men desert you, sunlight turn to fog; but you're never friendless ever, if you have a dog. Douglas Mallock I explained it to St. Peter, I'd rather stay here Outside the pearly gate. I won't be a nuisance, I won't even bark, I'll be very patient and wait, I'll be here, chewing on a celestial bone, No matter how long you may be. I'd miss you so much, if I went in alone, It wouldn't be heaven for me.
