Dog Quotes

I love reading dog stories and dog quotes. It's a hobby, especially when I'm on a quest on finding certain dog novels on book hunts. The book shop I go to only sell pre-loved books, so it's a treat when I find a book that's on my wishlist.

Here's a compilation of some of the quotes I like.
