    Want to learn how to live your best doggone life? Ask a dog!

    In case you haven’t noticed, dogs have life figured out. They wake up each day looking to make the best of every moment. They understand what’s important. They get over things quickly. They love a good walk. And they certainly know how to relax! Whether young or old, we can all learn a few tricks from dogs. So, sit, put your paws up, and delight in the wisdom of dogs!
    Bruce Littlefield (BruceLittlefield.com) is the bestselling author of The Bedtime Book for Dogs as well as Use What You’ve Got (with Barbara Corcoran). Hailed as a “lifestyle authority” by The New York Times and a “modern day Erma Bombeck” by NPR, he has appeared on Good Morning America, The View, and The Today Show. He’s been blessed with wonderful dogs who’ve brought him joy and taught him how to live in the present, love unconditionally, and give each day his all.
