- My life is likely to last ten to fifteen years - any separation from you will be very painful. Think about it before you'll buy me.
- Give me time to understand what you want of me! Life with me is not always easy. You will need a lot of patience, consistency, a lot of time and feeling for the situation!!!
- Place your trust in me - it is crucial for my well being!!!
- Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment...You have your work, your friends, your entertainment... I HAVE ONLY YOU but leave me my freedom!!!! Please understand me!!
- Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I understand your voice when you're speaking to me.
- Be aware that however you treat me, I'll NEVER forget it.!!!
Remember - my sences are stronger than yours.
- Before you hit me, remember that I have teeth that could easily crush the bones in your hands but I choose NOT to bite YOU for the sake of affection I feel for you!!!
- Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I've been out in the sun too long or my heart may be getting old and weak.
- Take care of me when I get old. You too will grow old.
- Go with me on difficult journeys. Never say, "I can't bear to watch it" or "Let it happen in my absence." Everything is easier for ME if you are there. Remember that I love you.
"But only if we are of the same opinion; because lasting love can not be found as a fallen leaf, it is the result of a very hard work, when we want it!"
If you will obey this ten commandments of your best friend, he will have a great wolfdog live.
