The good dog owner must first have a dog! Seriously though, a good dog owner must possess at least a little love for animals in general. |

i say a good dog owner is someone who treats his dog as a best friend and not just a pet. |

"In order to be a good master, you must learn to be a good follower."
You think this applies to dog and owner relationships  |

A good dog owner for me is someone who makes sure that his dog never ever goes hungry  |

Although I don't have a dog (I have two wonderful cats), I believe you're all right. Especially Joseph's 'not makes sure that his dog never ever goes hungry'.
That's very, very true with cats, too!

Yes, walking your dog is a simple way to spend quality time with your pet. This means a lot to a dog. We should all take some time to walk our dogs regularly. |

I just find spending quality time with our pets as essential. It strengthens relationships between pets and pet owners.  |
