Importance of having a pet

I have since long wanted to share my views with a larger no. of people. Had never tried blogging and this is my first try.
I shall be writing about dogs. In my thirty years of association with this wonderful canine world, I have come to know one important point- that when I am writing about dogs, I am actually writing about people.  The longer i think upon it the more convinced I am that dogs aren't just dogs. They are people too. Or at least they think they are! Certainly dogs are the only animals who would rather stay with humans than with their own species.


They face similar problems like those of humans - physical ailments, emotional problems , even personality clashes. However, our dog, despite all its human qualities, and because ability to talk is not one of them, is wholly dependent on our knowledge  and understanding of it as its means of communication with us. Because we are its world, it desires above all to be known, understood - to be as much a part of our love and life as possible. Its reason for being is to serve us, to comfort us and love us without being selfish. In return, it desires for our love, attention and acceptance as a member of the family.
