“Until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened." ~ Anatole France”
Sandra Lee, The Dog Effect: Canine Influence and Wisdom for Personal Growth

Andre Gatling
“Aggression in a dog is similar to aggression in a human. We're both scared of what we don't understand, and our need to protect leads to aggression. Changing that aggression in a dog is more complex because the dog doesn't speak English, so I had to learn to speak dog.”
Andre Gatling, Penelope's Bully
