Are You as Happy as Your Dog (Alan Cohen title)

Have you ever wondered if your dog knows more about joyful living than you? I met a man who told me, "For years I was so miserable that I prayed to God daily to please let me wake up as happy as my dog!" I went home and observed by dog Munchie, who is happy all the time. Munchie is the most joyful creature I have ever seen. He lives in a state of continuous delight and discovery.

It became clear to me that Munchie knew something I didn’t know (or at least didn’t remember). So I decided to study Munchie’s attitude to see what he knew that I was missing.

Professor Munchie’s lessons include:

   • Love to Be a Lover
   • Ask for What You Want
   • Keep Your Eye on the Ball
   • Give Your Heart to Someone
   • Get Off the Leash Sometimes
   • Dig Where the Real Bones Are
   • Don’t Settle for Mush
   • And Dream with Your Feet Moving
