[johnbeller]

" To err is human,
to forgive canine."

"If there are no dogs in Heaven,
then when I die I want to go
where they went."

"A dog is 'almost human' and I know of no greater
insult to the canine race than to describe it as such."

And of course..lord byron because I am a poetry junkie

The poor dog, in life the the firmest friend,
The first to welcome, foremost to defend,
Whose honest heart is still the master's own,
Who labours, fights, lives, breathes for him alone,
Unhonour'd falls, unnoticed all his worth,
Denied in heaven the soul he held on earth,
While man, vain insect hopes to be forgiven,
And claims himself a sole exclusive heaven.
