Like the giggle of babies that charm us and restore our positive view of the world, a dog’s laughter has been proven to calm other animals. Yes, dogs do laugh. Many might mistake their laughter for heavy panting, but in fact Patricia Simonet, an applied animal behaviorist and research scientist, who counsels pets and their humans and researchs the behaviors of animals. She has studied dog laughter, dog rules during play and reducing stress in shelter dogs by broadcasting a recording of dog laughter.

When one feels this good, it is difficult to remember recent days that have been challenging. Like the dreary cold and windy days this past winter when a body didn’t want to move, to go anywhere or do anything. Those days of trying to overcome oneself. On one such day I came across this gem in an email. Thought you might appreciate it too. Anyone with a dog, a faithful soulful dog will enjoy this a lot.
