Even a dog depends on its mom for good raising.





"Bow-wow, mommies

here to help you."

I heard an interesting article on NPR this morning. A group of scientists did a study on what kind of canine mothers raise the best guide dogs. The dogs that assist sight impaired people with mobility have to be smart, obedient, and well-behaved, so if we can produce more dogs with that disposition it would be great.
It turns out that the dogs who coddle their pups tend to produce the poorest guide dogs. Dogs are different than people, and successful people need traits that aren't all that useful to a companion animal and vice-versa.
Still it is an interesting concept.
I'll only allow myself one analogy. Parents matter. Mom, 
dad follow the guidance God gives us in His word. Be steady. Persist in offering thediscipline and instruction of the Lord. Love unconditionally.
