What it takes to make a dog happy

I subscribe to one of those "whatever of the day" things - this one about dogs. Today's post was a list of the 12 reasons a dog is happy all the time. I've seen the list before, in various permutations, but felt it merited a post here:

1. Everyone has the potential to be a good person (or dog)
2. You are never too old to make new friends
3. It doesn't matter what you did in the past - it matters only what you do now
4. Regrets don't do any good - just live for today
5. One should try to be happy every day
6. You are never too old to play
7. Food is a very good thing
8. Treats are a really, really good thing
9. Massages are the best relaxation
10. Money doesn't buy you love
11. One good toy is better than 10 bad toys
12. You don't need money to be happy

Although I realize that our lives - as humans - are not quite that simple, many of the things on this list ARE that simple. Go kiss all your pooches on the nose - once (at least) for you and once for me.
