Dogs are amazing teachers, once we open ourselves up to learning. Not only can they teach us a thing or two but a critical part of dog education is them teaching each other.

Here's my list of what I've learned from my dogs, and I apologize up front for the cliches!

• Life's a party, everyday. Doesn't matter if it's raining, snowing, or if you find a little piece of fuzz. There's always fun to be had.
• Life is short, don't hold a grudge. I've seen dogs have a little scuffle, shake it off, then they're back as friends. Why not forgive and forget!
