Dog Quotes

Dog quotes are as numerous and varied as dog breeds themselves, but they all seem to have one thing in common, they manage to reflect the extraordinary relationship we have with our “best friends”.

There is nothing like the joy and devotion that exists between man and dog and these quotes attempt to capture that feeling in words. From companionship to comfort to unlimited and unabashed love, there is no end to the gifts dogs bring into our lives on a daily basis.

If you have experienced that kind of connection you will understand and appreciate these dog quotes, and maybe even recognize a little of yourself in them.

I to had some really good furry friends in my lifetime and they made better friends than some humans I know.

Maybe you feel the same way to with your dog. You will always have that bond and when it is his/her time to go you will feel the same type of pain you would feel for a friend who passed away.

Read these dog quotes and I guarantee you will at least smile when you read some of the funny things people had to say about their pets. Enjoy.
