Dogs love us unconditionally so it's only right we love them back. I grew up since 4 with a Black Labrador that I loved more than some people. Now I got a lively Shitzu-poodle that is the exact opposite of my Labrador with just as much love. I've been told animals take to me innately. I promise to treat your dog with that same love.
