LETTERS TO A YOUNG PUPPY

By Amy Jordan

Letters to a Young Puppy is puppy chow for the dog lover's soul. These humorous letters and poems offer gentle instructions about life to a young puppy that are equally suitable for dog lovers, poets, parents, children, and friends.

"We can learn a lot about love from our dogs. The sweet balm of puppy love can soothe the most tender of hearts," says Amy.  Often the path to inner peace and happiness is as close as a cool tile floor or a rub on the belly from someone we love." 

Letter 1

My dear puppy,
I have nothing to teach you, save a few basics
like sit, stay and heel, all meant to protect you
from the occasional folly of a careless man.
You, on the other hand, by nature are the embodiment
of essential happiness and unconditional love.
Let me open my heart and embrace your instincts.
Teach me dog.

Letter 6
The Dog Ethicist

Q. If a dog sneaks a biscuit in the middle of the night and no one hears the box open, does it make him a bad dog?

A. It depends. Did you step on the cat on your way to the pantry?
