Mary Likes Dogs

I like dogs and so does Joe.  A few years ago I wrote a story about Mary temporarily fostering a beagle named Chester.

I asked Joe to draw a dog resembling an owner in this scene.  Notice how he gave them the same long hair and gentle disposition.

In addition to providing exercise during walks, dogs generally promote a person’s well-being and good feelings.

The bond between a pet and his or her owner can be very powerful.  I recommend the book, “Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home” by Rupert Sheldrake who says, “We have a great deal to learn from our companion animals.”
