Dogs
and lifestyle
For
some these two notions might seem too far apart to present any
similarities. But still, more than we know, dogs as object of our
love or repulsion, affect our lifestyle.
Each
and every one of us has gone through at least one experience that
included a dog. Whether sad or fortunate, these experiences exist and
cannot be ignored. As every other marking moment emotions triggered
by a dog at some point influent our ways from that moment on.
Just
for fun I want to show you what I mean by giving a rather unknown
example to prove my point.
Let’s
say you are over 30 and tried already every diet in the world to
loose a few ponds. And naturally, nothing worked. Well, one evening,
rainy evening of course, you come across a little fluffy puppy
abandoned just next to the garbage can in front of your house. You
don’t necessarily like dogs, but this one seems different and so
alone, maybe even a little sick, that you feel pity (you think) for
him and take him in…just for the night. And then you keep him
another night, and another one till he officially becomes your pet –
you can’t deny it anymore. You walk him every day at fixed hours
and, although you forgot all about your weight problem being too busy
petting the little pet, you amazingly reached undreamed results in
that particular problem. Surprised?
You
shouldn’t be, it’s known (by some at least) that regular daily 10
– 15 minutes walks are the best diet of all. Try them on your own
and you might get bored and give up. But with a dog, the walks are a
must, they have to be done, you can’t miss any of them.
So,
the little innocent dog not only made you a better person since you
let him into your house (and heart), but also solved the problem you
had that all your determination and lost money on diet products
couldn’t solve.
If
I wasn’t convincing enough, just try it. Get a dog. And
miraculously you will be a different person.
