I like using my mobile phone to take photos of dogs I see on the street, and then uploading the results onto my Instagram account. Sometimes it feels like I’m taking a photo of a person. I think dogs are wonderful and noble animals. I saw a saying on the internet that sums up perfectly what I see in them: “Every time I lose a dog, they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life, gives me a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are.” I’d like to think that this is true, and that there are now millions of humans with canine hearts.
