Sunday Thoughts - Dogs Are Awesome

Sunday, November 9, 2025 1:33

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

In my book, April Fool Proposition, the heroine and hero get a “mutual” dog that I modeled after Freddie, our daughter’s golden doodle.

At left, you can see Freddie in a birthday photo from a few years ago. He’s all grown up now and is the most intelligent, loving dog one could hope to have.

I’ve written a few books with dogs as characters because I love dogs. If you’re looking for unconditional love, then you need to get a dog.

As a dog lover—no offense to cats and cat lovers—I want to share some of my favorite dog quotes. I think they prove my point that dogs are awesome.
