Animals Make Me a Better Person

My love of animals has always been a central part of who I am and my career choices have always reflected this. As an animal trainer, a zookeeper, and now with starting this website, I hope that I have and can continue making a difference. These are the 13 best quotes to describe my passion and relationships with animals.

(He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals)
(If a dog will not come to you after having looked you in the face, you should go home and examine your conscience)
(The world would be a nicer place if everyone had the ability to love unconditionally as a dog)

I want to share what I have learned about animal care so everyone can provide the best quality of life to their pets.

(The best therapist has fur and four legs)
(Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole)
(Before you get a dog, you can’t imagine what living with one might be like; afterward, you can’t imagine living any other way)

I want to inspire people to learn more about wildlife and see them in their natural habitats so they can be as amazed as I am with what the animal world has to offer. 

(When I look into the eyes of an animal, I do not see an animal. I see a living being. I see a friend. I feel a soul)
(I like animals because they are not consciously cruel and don’t betray each other)
(If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans)

I hope to educate people, so they limit the harm we all do to the environment and animals without even meaning to.

(Animals are sentient, intelligent, perceptive, funny, and entertaining. We owe them a duty of care as we do to children)
(It’s not what we have in life, but who we have in our lives that matters)

Working closely with animals has made me a better person and I know I am not the only one!

(Until one has loved and animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened)
(If I could be half the person my dog is, I’d be twice the human I am)

  2. Amazing! I could never live without an animal in my life! I grew up with both dogs and cats… and our home feels empty when they are not there. Some of these quotes tugged at my hearstrings!

  3. After how hard it was losing both our cat and dog in the last few years, I don’t know that I will ever be ready for another pet. I have been enjoying a lot of wildlife during our recent travels.

  7. Our Golden Retriever pup, Frank, just joined our family at Christmas. I did not grow up with dogs so it’s been a bit of a learning curve for me, therefore I love finding resources like yours for insights, etc. 🙂

  21. I love these quotes, and I really miss having a dog. It’s been a year since we lost our big boy Kelso to cancer and rehomed our long term foster dog, but I just haven’t been ready yet. My fave quote in this post is “I like animals because they are not consciously cruel and don’t betray each other.”

  22. These are wonderful quotes! Animals are such intelligent beings, full of love. I know my three cats understand most of what I say. They are so smart and respond appropriately to words. And of course, they talk back. I’m learning to understand “cat”.
