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?

HAHAHHAAH i LOVE SADIE- she is one smart dog!
AAAAWWW Sadie is the CUTEST!!! And she is one WISE dog!! Seriously, this she shares my most important belief: ‘Calories from taste testing don’t count.’ 😀
Adorable post 🙂
I’ve learned life is short, from one of my dearly departed pets.
I loved Tina’s post, and this one, too- so fun and full of great reminders.
my neighbors JUST got the CUTEST puppy, and while i never thought i was a big dog person, I’ve learned that a pet can completely turn a day around in a matter of a second. How can they not make you smile?!
Now THAT was cute. Your dog is one wise mammal.
This is so sweet. I can’t wait to move to an apartment that lets me have a dog! Dogs are there when no one else is and are wise without words. Thanks for the perspective!
I love what Sadie has taught you. Adorable pics of her as always. I learned from my cat that there’s always time for a cuddle!
adorable!! love it!
<3
I’ve fallen in love with vizslas due to you+Sadie 🙂
My dog just passed away, and I’m thinking a Vizsla next for a running buddy 🙂
Awwww, how cute! 🙂 I saw Tina’s post with Murphy and thought it was totally adorable.
I’d have to say that Cody hasn’t taught me much of anything except it’s okay to hang out spread-eagle in front of a room full of friends…
😉
what a little hussie. 😉
I believe in leaping into the unknown, too! I just bungy jumped and it was amazing! you do have to think like a dog for a sec, lol
This is adorable. Makes me smile :). Well, reading your blog everyday makes
me smile!
Sadie is so cute! How big is she? My dog Tessa (rescued spaniel mix breed) is about 35lbs and they look about the same size. Tessa has definitely taught me to embrace the little joys every day. She’s a doggie optimist if there is such a thing =]
You’re right on! She’s 35 lbs.
So so cute!!! Love it!
This is such a cute post! I really believe dogs can teach you a lot about life if you listen. 🙂
Love this post!
I’ve learned from my cats that sleeping in the sun is an awesome thing to do, and that you should be independent, but full of love to those that deserve it.
Ahh love this post! It makes me have puppy fever even more! December needs to hurry up so I can get one already! lol 🙂
What a great post!! This made me smile!!
PBF- I have only recently began reading your blog. but I must say, I love your site and always enjoy reading what you have to say! I look forward to more!
My old dog taught me that cuddling with a pet can make even the worst day seem better. I remember getting really upset over college applications my senior year, and basically having a breakdown that left me crying on our family room floor. Indy came over and started licking my face with his huge smelly tongue, and even though it was kind of gross, it instantly made me feel better. Dogs are so in tune to human emotions!
This post left me with such a big smile on my face 😀 Sadie is so adorable – and I love the idea of this post. Great one!
Awesomeness! Love all the pics. And that one of “not every day is a good day…” – she really does look like she is wailing. LOL
Awww I LOVE this post!
My fave pic of Sadie has got to be the “Laugh every day” one!
She’s so cute I could make a Sadie Sammich and gobble her right up. 😉
I really like this post!! Sadie is a very cute dog 🙂
My bf and I went to a dog adoption place yesterday to check out the dogs. I loved every single one of them! But there was this big goofy fluff ball named Red who went up to every human for a petting and every dog for a lick or a sniff – making me think that if Red had a life mantra, it’d be “Be nice to everyone, no matter what” :]
adorable!!
Awww this is great! I read all of your Sadie posts and I just can’t wait to get a puppy of my own in a few years!!
I love this post!!!
From our cats, I’ve learned that naps are good, but tuna is better.
i literally giggled like a little kid when i read this post. sadie looks SO cute with her little pink nose and funny faces!
this post totally makes me want to get a dog. such cute pics.
Awwww! I LOVE this! 🙂
Ohmygoodness. I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are so right, dogs have such a wonderful view on life… they don’t hold grudges… they are loving towards everyone (for the most part, ha!) and they know how to make you feel better when you’re sad. Nothing beats a puppykiss! Aw, this post brought me so much happiness!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the smiles, Julie and Sadie 🙂
love like there’s no tomorrow! my puppies love always, no matter what, and like there’s no tomorrow 🙂
Julie you can always make me smile. Sadie is SOO cute! I love the life lessons 🙂
This post is so great! Sadie is definitely a wise dog…especially when it comes to taste testing 🙂
Julie this is probably my favorite post from you I’ve read, and I’ve been reading since September.
Thank you Sadie! I read Tina’s post earlier this week and loved that as well!
Sadie’s so cute and her life lessons are spot on too! 😀
Very cute pics. My cat’s name is Sadie too. 😉
Oh Sadie, such a sage! This has me wanting to post life lessons for my dog George, but I’m pretty sure he thinks it all boils down to cuddles and making friends.
How cute! Sadie is such a sweetie. I’ve learned from my dog Hunter to be more outgoing. Everywhere he goes, everyone is his friend!
Dogs are so good at living life – I LOVE this Julie!
So cute! My dog teaches me to always smile – she always seems to have a giant, goofy grin on her face.
So sweet and great lessons! I have a vizsla too and they make the world soooo much better!!!
😀 This made me smile 🙂 “Eat the foods you love without guilt.” So true, so true.
What I learned from Princess:
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Possibly, the most important thing EVER.
Chocolate is worth risking your life for.
What I learned from Buffy:
You can always get what you want by acting cute.
Keep your paws clean and your nails trimmed.
AHH, I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this post!!!!!! Dogs (& the wisdowm they bestow) indeed make this world a better place 🙂
I love it! Sadie has definitely taught me to appreciate the little things in life :). Precious!
I LOVE your blog! You are so adorable and I’ve been reading the whole thing. Very cute 🙂
I LOVE this! Sadie is my very favorite blog dog, so I appreciate her life lessons! 😛
