“I have caught more ills from people sneezing over me and giving me virus infections than from kissing dogs.”

I do not believe that a dog can be cured by a psychiatrist, but I think some owners could be helped by one.

The dog has an enviable mind; it remembers the nice things in life and quickly blots out the nasty.

When I breathe down my nose to say how do you do to a horse, it can hear that breath at anything up to twenty yards, for horses have the most acute sense of hearing.

There is nothing a pig loves more than a good bath, with a loofah and plenty of soap flakes … There is something delightfully lovable about a really clean pig, in clean yellow straw.

Dogs aren’t born knowing what or what not to do; they only learn like children.

Dogs understand your moods and your thoughts, and if you are thinking unpleasant things about your dog, he will pick it up and be downhearted.
