friends is that he wags his tail

"The disposition of noble dogs is to be gentle
with people they know and the opposite with
those they don't know...How, then, can the dog
be anything other than a lover of learning
since it defines what's its own and what's
alien."

The one absolutely unselfish friend that man
can have in this selfish world, the one that
never deserts him, the one that never proves
ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog.”

You ask of my companions.  Hills, sir, and the
sundown, and a dog as large as myself that
my father bought me.  They are better than
human beings, because they know but do not
tell.

"Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't
know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with
a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is
to be back in Eden,
where doing nothing was not boring --
it was peace" ~

"Take this trouble for me: Make sure my
shepherd dog remains a working dog, for I
have struggled all my life long for that aim.''
