Konrad Lorenz Dog Quotations

Barking dogs occasionally bite, but laughing men hardly ever shoot.

It ought to be realized by all dog owners that obesity shortens a dog's life quite considerably, a life which is much too short anyhow.

Visualize yourself confronted with the task of killing, one after the other, a cabbage, a fly, a fish, a lizard, a guinea pig, a cat, a dog, a monkey and a baby chimpanzee. In the unlikely case that you should experience no greater inhibitions in killing the chimpanzee than in destroying the cabbage or the fly, my advice to you is to commit suicide at your earliest possible convenience, because you are a weird monstrosity and a public danger.

The fidelity of a dog is a precious gift.

Just thinking that my dog loves me more than I love him, I feel shame.

There is no faith which has never yet been broken, except that of a truly faithful dog

The bond with a dog is as lasting as the ties of this earth can ever be.

The fidelity of a dog is a precious gift demanding no less binding moral responsibilities than the friendship of a human being.
