They can

He
was
humility and grace
we
all could learn from.
Not long before his death, Harry and I headed out for a walk that proved
e \fen
nearly 13, old for a big dog. Walks were no longer the frenzies of pur. o
which we would cast madly off in all directions fighting for com r were
they
t
he
exuberant archaeological expeditions of his middle years,
wh@ h
or blade of grass held tantalizing secrets
about
his neighbolifs: his old age, Harry had
transformed his walk into a simple head-down

n finished, he would shuffle
home to his
ratty
old bed, which graced our v ~ b e c u s e Harry could no longer
ascend the stairs.
On
these
walks, Harry

B t
th

of

t s no big dealt l f dog; they make it so easy for you. They find you brilliant, even if
you are a ~ u fascinate them, even if you
are
as dull as a butter knife . They are fond
of you,,. ven 1 .you
are
a genocidal maniac. Hitler loved his dogs
and they
loved hi
m.
t ~ ed with eight dogs, watched six
of
them grow old and infirm with grace and
~ and die with what seemed to be acceptance. I have seen old dogs grieve
at
the loss
of
their friends. I have come to believe that
as they
age, dogs comprehend
the
passage of
time. They understand
that
what s gone is gone.
In
our dogs, we see ourselves. Dogs exhibit almost all
of our
emotions; if you think a dog
cannot register envy or pity
or
pride
or
melancholia, you have never lived with one for any
length of time.
What
dogs lack is our ability
to
dissimulate. They
wear
h e i r emotions
nakedly, and so, in watching them,
we
see ourselves as
we
would be if
we were
stripped
of
posture and pretence. Their innocence is enormously appealing. When we watch a dog
