Which is it? As one would be "GOD" and the other would be "DOG".

Dogs teach us so much about life if we are willing to listen and learn. I'm consistently amazed, entertained and humbled by these entities. They are incredible!

You have your dog for a very important reason.
You have made interesting observations about it.You need to put these observations to one side for the moment.
Its trying to show you something about yourself. The is something so similar in the nature of the of the dog that is a mirror of yourself. Its possibly so obvious its very hard to spot.
You need to look yourself. I cannot tell you anymore.edit on 21-11-2010 by JohnySeagull because: (no reason given)

I cannot agree with our point. Having dog is not to teach you to be a loyal and obedient servant to God the way your dog is a loyal and obedient servant to you.
Its much more serious than this manmade religous hokum.

you have completely misunderstood what I am trying to say.
it is nothing to do with what dogs can teach us.
it is exactly what your dog is trying to show you. its totally specific to you and your dog. its almost like your dog is a guide for you. you have that particular dog for a very specific reason.
sorry, i'm not very good at explaining things.

how come that, isnt serious, or spiritually meaningful. Yet what you have to say is more 'deep' and important.
I already know what youre going to say "dogs are showing us that were also animals. and we have to honor are animal natures".
you can keep that pagan hokum to yourself.

where did i say 'isn't serious' or 'spiritual meaningful'. its not fair when you turn my words into other new words and you are trying to speak for me,
i have no time for religions. they are full of rules and folk who think they are more powerful than other people. they preach about not judging while all the poeple who follow religion spend there whole life judging. just because I have no time for religion does not mean i am not spiritual.

Awesome post! I agree with your sentiments 100%!
I’ve lived with dogs all my life (presently I’m living with 2 black labs and 1 golden lab) all of whom have enriched my life immensely!
Now this is just a story, so please take from it what you will. But, the other day, I was prowling YouTube and I happened across this video where a female Shaman (whose name I’m afraid I can’t recall) was explaining how human beings have unfortunately lost touch with nature…and that at one time in our pre-pre-pre-historic past, people were actually able to communicate telepathically with all sorts of animals, plant life and so forth. (kinda like a “Garden of Eden” scenario)
And she explained, that as we developed, we humans chose a path in which separated ourselves from nature, however we were lucky enough that at least one other species came along with us for the ride. And that one species --- is of course our Canine friends; whom she suggested came alongside humans to remind us how to love unselfishly and live in the moment.
I know this story, is most likely a myth…but it really resonated with me still. Because if there’s one thing that I’ve learned from my dogs --- it’s the experience of pure love and joy!
Lol, just as I was about to hit submit…my Cat hopped on my computer with a very noisy meow…possibly to remind me that not just dogs but lol our kitty cats (and surely our other domesticated pets) are just as wonderful in their own right! But for sure there is something special about our dogs!
