Dog Zen Letter 5: What is the Opposite of Anthropomorphism?
Yes, some accuse me of anthropomorphism, attributing human characteristics to dogs. How silly! I firmly advocate without reservation that people take on dog characteristics. I myself strive each day as I get older to be just a little more puppy in spirit. In his absence I faithfully await my love’s arrival -- tail wagging in anticipation, ears alert to his footsteps, nose awakened to his scent. I am not disappointed. One kiss, one pat, one biscuit, as it were, and I am assured my universe is exactly as it should be. MORE....

Dog Zen Letter 4: The Nature of Biscuits
Is a biscuit more than just a snack?
Indeed it is, so much more.
It is all good things.
Puppy breath.
Daffodils.
Giggling babies.
Sweet corn.
Rainbows.
Your tail wags
because I come from work,
because I pet your head,
because we are going for a walk.
I say in a happy voice biscuit,
and you hear the winning lotto numbers!
Basically, if it makes your tail wag
it is, more than likely, a biscuit,
although it could be just an itch.

Dog Zen Letter 2: I Am Puppy
I am puppy. I bark with glee
and without hesitation,
without self-censorship.
I do not know the word no.
Look at me –
I can lift my leg and pee,
shake your paw for a biscuit,
fetch you a lizard,
lick myself!

Dog Zen Letter 1: Teach Me Dog
My dear puppy,
I have nothing to teach you, save a few basics
like sit, stay and heel, all meant to protect you
from the occasional folly of a careless man.
You, on the other hand, by nature are the very embodiment
of essential happiness and unconditional love.
Let me open my heart and embrace your instincts.
