Thanks, TCP! They’re all different, and far more emotional and intelligent than many people think. Imho, the more that we expect of them, the more they learn. My dogs, for example, have learned quite a few commands, and learn more all the time.

I told one of them to “go upstairs” the other day, and he looked at me and immediately charged up the stairs. Animals are amazing.

The Weather Is Perfect for Running

The weather is perfect for running.
I think that I'll go for a jog.
Except I'm a little bit tired,
so maybe I'll just walk the dog.

But he seems too hyper for walking.
He looks kind of hard to control.
So maybe I'll leave him at home,
and go for a leisurely stroll.

But all of my socks are too dirty,
and all of my shoes are untied.
So maybe I'll sit on the front porch.
Or maybe I'll just stay inside.

I see that my kitten is purring,
and wants to curl up on my lap.
It wouldn't be right to prevent her
from getting her afternoon nap.

It's comfortable here on the sofa.
My pillows are cozy and deep.
The weather is perfect for running.
So that's why I'm going to sleep.

Have a happy Wednesday, everyone!

I’ve been surprised by how much my dog understands too.
The horses do that too.
Amazing creatures God has given us to love.
