The Secret to Happiness

When will Humans learn?  While channel surfing I couldn’t help but notice all the shows dishing out advice on how to live a happy and fulfilling life in the year ahead.  Every single one of these “experts” were missing the mark on what it takes to be truly happy.  They talked about dieting, exercising, and being more positive in the year ahead.  Well those are all admirable goals, but once again they are approaching this all wrong.  Humans don’t need to follow new diet trends, buy an expensive gym membership, or read books on living happy.  The secret to happiness is simple, Be More Dog!

Eat what makes you happy

Whipped Cream? No, I haven’t been eating your whipped cream. Why do you ask?

Never pass up an opportunity to run and play

Neither snow, nor sleet, or frosty paws will keep me from playing fetch!

Greet everyone with enthusiasm

“How delightful to find a friend in everyone.”

Don’t sweat the small stuff

Cone of Same? Nonsense! It’s my Happy Hat!

Be kind and always forgive

It’s Ok Chuck Billy, I forgive you for listening to your wolf instincts and protecting me from my squeaky toys.

Take plenty of naps

And never pass up an opportunity to cuddle with a friend.

Stop and smell the world around you

Have you ever noticed how delightful grass smells?

Love unconditionally

Love unconditionally…even if your goofy brother does tell corny jokes.

Follow your instincts

You never know what you may find!

Bark less, wag more

Ok, I admit I have to work on this one. Sorry Deer for barking at you all the time.

That my friends is the secret to a Happy and Healthy New Year!
