Being a dog lover I have to admit I don't understand them sometimes. They do some rather odd things at times. In fact, to be so smart sometimes they are so dumb. The couch is not a proper place to use the potty, but for some reason our former pup, Sasha, thought sometimes the couch was a proper potty place. Crazy dog. It always made me so mad when she would take a leak on the couch. She was a smart dog, she knew better.
So after yelling at her and all that she would hop down from the couch and hide or go to another room in the house. Ten minutes later she was back out, tail wagging. The odd thing was she always got over it, meaning she forgot and forgave me yelling and screaming at her about a new pet stain on the couch. Dogs have short memories in that sort of stuff.
I had an old dog back when I was growing up, Pancho. There were times when he did a dumb thing and I yelled at him. Five minutes later he would come back over, wagging his tail, tongue out, all was forgotten.
Dogs don't hold grudges, as far as I've seen and they seem to let stuff go, like screaming fits, fairly quickly. If only people could be more like dogs and have shorter memories of wrongs done and tantrums pitched by owners.
Call it unconditional love or whatever you want. I call it cool...
