Lessons to Live By: The Canine Commandments

by W.R. Pursche

Dogs seem to be happy all the time, with no worries, no cares, living every day to the fullest. How do they do this? In this moving and uplifting work, W. R. Pursche examines how dogs live and translates their way of life into lessons for us to live by.

Unlike other negative ‘rules’ that are often thrown at us ("Don’t do this! Don’t do that!") these lessons are all appealingly positive. More than just a book of quotes or stories, and filled with examples from everyday life, "Lessons to Live By: The Canine Commandments" plainly shows how we can all benefit from the wisdom of dogs.

Whether or not you have a dog or even like dogs, these memorable lessons will provide you or someone you know with a straightforward and uncomplicated approach to living a happier and more fulfilling life.

Wonderful for dog lovers

Who practices Christs love better than dogs and animals?
Surely not humans.We have to ask for forgiveness our entire lives. This book gives a real insight into what we have always loved about dogs we have had during our lives. How poor some people are to never have experienced animal friendship and love.

Any dog lover will enjoy this book

There have been dogs in my life since I was a child. Each had their own personality, but each was loved. And each one had all of the traits mentioned in this book. An each one was and still is missed.
