Madam – Dear Community,
Every dog starts life with a blank canvas. His destiny etched by the hands of the painter and each one an artist’s original.
The portrait painted depends on how the brush is held. Paint with hostility and a dog learns to fight. Paint with cruelty and a dog learns fear. Paint with anger and a dog learns aggression. Paint with praise and a dog learns confidence.
Paint boundaries and a dog learns respect. Paint with tenderness and a dog learns to bond. Paint with affection and a dog learns to love.
Every dog is a product of its environment. Bad dogs are not born, they are created. If the portrait’s flawed look to the artist.
Stop blaming the dog!
