If everything you loved had to obey you, it would be very hard for love to be a two-way street.
It's not like a dog is a robot, of course it's going to do something that you're not going to like. But has anyone ever heard of unconditional love? That's why I like dogs.
My favorite animal is the penguin. I really like them, they're cute and when I was little, my dad called me because it rhymed with my name (in my language).
