Childhood can be a time of magic, can you remember jumping on sofa boats with cushions as stepping stones to save you from the circling sharks? A blanket over a table as a makeshift tent or fairy castle, a cardboard rocket or ship with toilet roll telescopes?

Have you ever wondered why dogs seems so happy? They live in the moment, with no worry about tomorrow or rumination about yesterday. Have you ever felt nervous entering a room full of strangers worrying what other may be thinking, feeling self conscious, wishing you could go home or not have even come in the first place? Not dogs… a dog enters with tail up excited to explore a new space, new smells and meet new friends. A dog does not worry what others think…. we can all learn from that.
