…when a 120 lb German Shepherd walks over from the place he was laying, stops to receive a pat from you, then lays down right by your feet. A happy moment indeed, to know you are loved by a fluffy 120 lb dog.

Have you ever had this happen to you after you get back from the dentist: You sit down and get on the internet the whole time wondering if you should read or clean your room instead, but you allow yourself to relax for a little while. While you are surfing the web ( which does not take nearly as much muscle as actual surfing) you glance out the window and see a deer eating grass by you’re mailbox. You think: That’s cool. Look quickly toward your german shepherd. I guess he hasn’t seen it yet. Then you watch the deer for a while. Hey, I should check the mail anyway. You go out and check the mail thinking that the deer is long gone. Oh hello. You see the deer, who has now frozen as an attempt to evade you eyesight. Despite the fact that you are frozen I still see you. You say (not realizing that you are talking to a deer) You check the mail. Oh there’s no mail. Look back at the deer, who has moved slightly, but has now resumed frozen stance. What if I do the same thing? You freeze and stare at the deer. What if I act like a deer and you act like a human? You say. The deer turns, ignores you and begins to walk away. Good job, you say, slightly amused and walk back into your house. Then you think, Why do the dentist people walk so fast when they lead you to the room?
