#Owner #loves #Lab

You know what: I can live without booties

During our morning walk, we met Judge, a #golden Labrador Retriever.  First observation: Labs are somewhat famous for their lack of good judgment, witness “#Marley,” the famous #dog that, among other things ate most of a garage.
     Second observation: the dog was wearing four #booties.  When I asked what they were for, the female owner said that, when Judge walks, he sometimes gets little sores between his toes and the booties prevent that.  Also, in the summer, when it has been as high as 120-degrees in Palm Desert, CA., the asphalt gets very hot.  The booties keep Judge’s feet from being burned.
     Third observation: we sure do love our dogs.
       “If you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend,
       If you can face the world without lies and deceit,
       If you can say honestly that deep in your heart you have no prejudice against creed, color, religion or politics,
      Then, my friend, you are almost as good as your dog.”   Author Unknown
