Last week I saw one of the most adorable blog posts on Tina’s blog where she posted Life Advice from Murphy which detailed, through pictures, everything her pug has taught her about life.
You guys know I am basically obsessed with Sadie (and all dogs) and as I read her post, my mind instantly started thinking about all the things I’ve learned from Sadie.
So, without further ado, here are life lessons from Sadie…
***
The best things in life are free.
Sharing is caring.
Fight for the things you believe in.
Not every day is a good day… but that’s okay.
Don’t be afraid to say you’re sorry.
Get all gussied up every once in a while.
Keep your nose in your own business.
Always make time for family.
Laugh every day.
Eat the foods you love without guilt.
Stay active.
Don’t be afraid to leap into the unknown.
Sometimes a hug makes everything better.
Haters are gonna hate. Shake it off.
Calories from taste testing don’t count.
Sadie is so wise. 
Have you learned anything from a pet?

love this post!! Such cute pics, thanks!
I absolutely love this! And Sadie is so adorable!
Awww, that is just too cute. 🙂 I love the laugh everyday picture!
Sadie sure knows how to live life!!
This is seriously so sweet. I’ve learned that dogs are really the most faithful companions.
So adorable! Sadie is so wise. 🙂
I’ve learned there’s no such thing as too much sleep. Oh and there is no treat better than an ice cube!
so sweet and so true – Preach on Sadie! Thank you for sharing this! I love it.
My pets have taught me that a mid afternoon nap on the weekend can be just what the doctor ordered!
that first pic of your dog with the stick is AMAZING!! Sadie is so cute!!
Ive learned from my poochie, Casper, is to love everyone and everything. casper is the kindest, most loveable dog I have ever met!
Puppy pics are always the cutest.
Well what can I say about my baby girl Jiggy? She was a cute and fiesty little pup, so smart, we never even had to teach her not to pipi inside, how to fetch, her designated corner, she just knew and she is so so noble. But the most important is that she’s a fighter.
We battled her mange for the first 2 years of her life, something that I could relate to since I had celiac induced dermatitis herpetiform when I got her. The whole first year was heartbreaking since she was suffering, not getting better and we were faced with the very possible chance that we might have to put her down if her condition didn’t better. And amazingly even through the worst of it she was this amazing feisty curious and talented little pup, she never lost her sparkle.
But after a long struggle I changed to a gluten free diet, we found my Jiggy-poo medicine that finally worked and we both started to get better.
With mange and with celiac there is always a chance that you will never be 100 percent and whenever I get sick she instinctually stays by my side every single day I am sick to “take care” of me.
Jiggy reminds me everyday not to ever give up and not to let my circumstances or health woes tarnish the sparkle that makes me me and also not to compare my limits with other dogs (or people!) who have better health, because I can still do amazing things within my physical limits, just like she can.
i love this post, especially the picture where Sadie is laughing!
I LOVE this! I always think I should take life lessons from my dog. One I often use is, “hey, it’s good to stop sweating the small stuff and just be lazy”
Seeing pictures of your dog make me want to get one of my own right now! I can’t wait ’til I am settled down long enough to get one 🙂
Such a great post! My kitty has taught me to relax 🙂
So cute! 🙂 Dogs are the best!
Awww…LOVE vizsla’s – they are so adorable and I keep seeing them everywhere now!!
I have two doggies – one German Shorthaired Pointer overgrown puppy who is actually a lot like Sadie 😀
My dogs have taught me “Always have time out for some fun” 🙂
so so cute- warms my heart!
Love this post, it is so true! My dog has totally taught me to put things in perspective and not get so stressed out about life’s stupid complications! Dogs are the best, I can’t imagine life without them.
I love these posts! My weimaraner looks a lot like Sadie and seems to have a similar personality.
These posts totally remind me of The Art of Racing in The Rain. 🙂
We always describe her as a brown, skinnier version of a weim!
🙂 I love this. My pup has taught me many of these lessons too.
All the pictures of Sadie are too cute! I can’t wait to get a puppy! 🙂
Loved this! 🙂
I’m not a dog fan in the slightest (sorry!) but I thought that was such an adorable post…we pick up things in the most unexpected ways!
I read Tina’s too and loved it. LOVE yours as well. Sadie is too cute.
awww Sadie is tooooo cute!!! what breed is she? 🙂 And I don’t have pets, but my fiance does! He has two adorable cats and they teach us a lot of things! mostly for him since he lives with them…It’s so ironic how much we learn from the cats about God’s love! It’s like, they can be soooooooooo difficult and whiny to my fiance, and through this he sees how much more we as humans do this before God, yet He’s sooo patient and loving that He’s willing to deal with us and correct us at times. 😀
Sadie is a vizsla.
Awwww I absolutely loved this post!!!
The only advice that my cat could give would be to eat whenever possible and sleep the rest of the time. 😛
Aww I have a choc lab puppy and when we got her she was so tiny and sick!! shes taught me to love even when you feel awful, theres always time for exercise, treats any time of day are perfect, and cuddling makes everything better! My boxer was a stray but continues to give more love than imaginable even though he has had such a tragic life!He’s so happy now and has taught me I can overcome anything and to never hold grudges. Dogs are SO great!!
I adore this! Loooved Lisa’s original.
I think Chloe’s too much of a baby still to teach me too much (she’s still learning!), but she definitely HAS taught me that sometimes, you just need to be selfish. 🙂 I’m trying to not let her rub off on me too much. 😉
Sadie is the cutest and happiest looking dog. Your blog has definitely convinced me that a vizla is the kind of dog I want to get.
Love this!! Made me smile!
Love your Sadieisms! 🙂 She’s one wise pooch!
Loved this Sadie post! She is such a cutie! Great pictures.
Awww, I loved Tina’s post about Murphy and yours is equally as cute! Sadie’s puppy pictures are adorable. 🙂
hahahha OMG my favorite is “not every day is a good day” hilarious picture! And the active one of her running, she is SO MUSCULAR!
All the pictures are intensely adorable i love her!
Love this post. I saw Murphy’s also. These are great. Hmmm. I wonder if I should do this for my doggie too. 🙂 Have a great day.
I LOVE this!!! she’s so adorable!
“Calories from taste testing doesnt count”- my favorite.
love this post!!!
“haters are gonna hate. shake it off.” So True!!! 🙂
