Life Lessons: Read Marley and Me...
By Grogan.

A good Democratic leaning writer with a story that lends itself to everything Democrat in a way that you can recommend it to a Republican and maybe sway their thinking a bit.

I promise. This could be a weapon.

It has heart.

1. Is this the book surrounding a golden retriever?
It's on my list as a gift for a friend; didn't know it had a good 'Dem' message!

5. She weighs 70 pounds now and knocks me off my computer when I need
it.

And she's still got the same personality of the tyke you see on the couch.

Love and compassion are the Dem's strengths.

Pass it on.

7. What a cute pup! I have a Lab story...
We take our dog Buddy to "Doggy Day Care" once or twice a week. The place we take him to has a swimming pool (in the shape of a bone!). Of course, the Labs at day care love the pool and are in it all of the time. The other day I was watching and the Labs were having a blast jumping in the water and swimming around. The Border Collies and Australian Shepards were not happy because the Labs weren't doing what they wanted them to do. They were running around and barking at the Labs who happily ignored them. It was pretty funny to watch.

10. You should check it out. Our dog comes home and he is absolutely
exhausted. The dogs have a blast.
