The Joy Of Dogs

by Jon Katz

A part of every dog I have known lives in joy. Poor Bud had no joy for the first years of his life, he is making up for the lost time. He has plenty of joy here.

Fate has her joy in racing in wide circles – outruns – around the sheep. Zinnia seems to find joy in almost everything in life. This morning, Asher, one of the sheep tried to butt her and she licked him on the nose, tail wagging. He stopped trying to butt her.

Zinnia and Fate now find joy racing together in the morning. Fate runs around the sheep, Zinnia loves to run with her. I love the joy of dogs, it reminds me to find joy every day.

Dogs never forget the joy of life.
