- Take naps and stretch before rising. 
 
- Run, romp and play daily. 
 
- Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. 
 
- Be loyal. 
 
- Never pretend to be something you’re not. 
 
- If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it. 
 
- When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close
by and nuzzle them gently.  
- Thrive on attention and let people touch you. 
 
- Avoid biting when a simple growl will do. 
 
- On hot days, drink lots of water and lay under a shady tree.

guilt thing and pout… run right back and make friends.

- Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
