Animal Bill of Rights

• We are full members of your family.
• We relish your attention, praise, kindness and love.
• We have the right to PLAY!
• We need new games, new toys, new experiences, new friends and new smells to be happy and thrive!
• We have the right to run around, frolic and exercise. Without it, we could become hyper, sluggish, overweight and SERIOUSLY BUMMED OUT...
• WE have the right to have FUN! We enjoy acting like clowns making you smile and laugh. Don't expect us to be predictable ALL the time!
• We have the right to quality health care. Please stay good friends with our vet!
• We have the right to healthful food and a good diet. Just like some people, we don't know what is best for us!
• We have the right not to be rejected because of your expectations that we be perfect show dogs or show cats, watchdogs, hunters or babysitters.
• We have the right to receive proper training. Otherwise, our good relationships could be marred by confusion and strife-and we could be dangerous to others and ourselves.
• We have the right to guidance and correction based on understanding and compassion, rather than abuse.
• We have the right to live with dignity… and to die with dignity when the time comes.
• We will miss you too and live in your heart forever!
• Our memories will last forever...
