Think Twice
Do not keep a dog if you cannot give him proper care, or do not mean to take the trouble that common humanity demands of you—food, comfort, exercise, cleanliness, kindly feeling and the human companionship which the dog looks for and repays with lifelong fidelity and affection are asked of you. Think well, and do not sentence a dog of yours to a life of misery. When he just sits loving, and knows that he is being loved, those are the moments that I think are precious to a dog: when, with his adoring soul coming through his eyes, he feels that you are just thinking of him. —John Galsworthy.
