"Dogs are a really amazing eye opener for us humans because their lives are compressed into such a short period, so we can see them go from puppyhood to adolescence to strong adulthood and then into their sunset years in 10 to 12 years. It really drives home the point of how finite all our lives are."

Not only dogs, cats..,.I think any creature teaches us more about ourselves as well as opens our eyes to them as well
