Far too many people feel that a dog is more like a toy. An inconvenience when they're bad, and a nice diversion when they're fun. We look at the dog from the point of view of how he/she affects us. Good dog if we're happy. Bad dog if we're not.

Have we ever thought that your dog has an existence apart from you? That they have their own existence and goals of life that may not be linked to yours? In other words, have you thought that they have their own soul?

A Dog's Soul

Every dog must have a soul
Somewhere deep inside
Where all his hurts and grievances
Are buried with his pride.
Where he decides the good and bad,
The wrong way from the right,
And where his judgement carefully
Is hidden from our sight.
A dog must have a secret place
Where every thought abides,
A sort of close acquaintance that
He trusts in and confides.
And when accused unjustly for
Himself, He cannot speak,
Rebuked, He finds within his soul
The comfort he must seek.
He'll love, tho'he is unloved,
And he'll serve tho'badly used,
And one kind word will wipe away
The times when he's abused.
Altho' his heart may break in two
His love will still be whole,
Because God gave to every dog
An understanding Soul!
