Loving Dogs

To begin with, well, the Dogs are nice.Don't you think so. Much nicer than human beings. More consistent. More loyal. They, also, listen better.

Research shows that you live longer if you have a dog. When you come home after a terrible day, dogs wag their tails, happy to see you again. They actually wait for you to come home. How many spouses do the same ???

Dogs know instinctively when you are down and they try their best to lick your worries away. Dogs work for us and demand very little salary. A little dry kibble and a sqeaky toy, that's about it. They can keep you warm at night and keep one eye open for the burglar at the same time.

Dogs help us by sniffing bombs planted by evil bombers and save lives during earthquakes and building collapses and lost skiers. They become our eyes if we go blind. Dogs do whatever we ask, whenever. Yet, the truth is, we have so much to learn from them. Above all they know how to play. Something we have forgotten long ago. For Dog life is fun. Just smelling life makes their juices flow. Waking up in the morning is incredible experience for a dog. It's being Alive! Is it any wonder that we like any Ad which has dog in it ?

Advertising legend Lee Clow takes his German shepherd to work. Students and Teachers at reputed Miami Ad school bring their dogs to school too. They use dogs to select the students. If a prospective student comes to the school and shows fear or disrespect to the pup at the door, they send the prospect to another school. Smudge, the chocolate Labrador Retriever and the official school Mascot , wanders in and out of the classrooms, sits on the sofa and listens attentively.

It is high time the HR starts using Dogs in the selection process in corporate world. It may be good tool to find good team players.

One of the Hindu Gods Dattatreya takes Dog as his Guru.

To end this dog story, as my Father said: 'More I look at Man, More I love My Dog'. So next time you meet one give him your Smile.
