No symphony orchestra ever played music like a two-year-old girl laughing with a puppy.
Bern Williams

Bern Williams
Bark: This is a sound made by dogs when excited. Dogs bark at milkmen, postmen, yourself, visitors to the house and other dogs; some of them bark at nothing. For some reason dogs tend not to bark at burglars, bailiffs and income tax collectors, at whom they wag their tails in the most friendly manner.
Geoffrey Williams
I may have grown cynical from long service, but this is a tendency I do not like, and I sometimes think I'd rather be a dog and bay at the moon than stay in the Senate another six years and listen to it.
John Sharp Williams
If you look closely you can see that they are all interconnected, symbolic of a never-ending circle in which it is simply impossible for the dog to catch the rabbit.
Kit Williams
It inspired all sorts of whims and fancies that I ultimately wove into a fairy tale complete with muse, the earth, the moon, some famous inventors, a dog and a rabbit.
Kit Williams
The dog and the rabbit are telling us not to chase unattainable material goals.
Kit Williams

Kit Williams
It is a terrible thing for an old woman to outlive her dogs.
Tennessee Williams
But I have always liked bird dogs better than kennel-fed dogs myself—you know, one that will get out and hunt for food rather than sit on his fanny and yell.
Charles E. Wilson
Every dog is allowed one bite, but a different view is taken of a dog that goes on biting all the time. He may not get his licence returned when it falls due.
Harold Wilson
Each species is a masterpiece, a creation assembled with extreme care and genius.
Edward O. Wilson
All Dobermans should be named "Einstein." Well, perhaps that's too lavish praise. They're a bit weak on mathematics, but they certainly could earn a Ph.D. in any other subject.
Morton Wilson, dog trainer
If a dog will not come to you after he has looked you in the face, you should go home and examine your conscience.
Woodrow Wilson
My name is Oprah Winfrey. I have a talk show. I'm single. I have eight dogs—five golden retrievers, two black labs, and a mongrel. I have four years of college.
Oprah Winfrey, when asked to describe herself during jury selection
This past Thanksgiving, my father was at the farm, and I had all 11 dogs in the house with a father who never allowed dogs in the house. And he got up to leave the table and came back and Solomon was in his chair. And he says, "This dog is in my chair." And I said, "It's the other way around, you're sitting in his chair."
Oprah Winfrey, on her American spaniel, who shares the house with ten other dogs, including six golden retrievers
I call the Crown Plaza Hotel and I say, you know, "I need a room. Do you have one?" and they say, "We don't have any rooms." I say, Well OK—I used the Oprah Winfrey thing. Now is the time to pull out the name. It's 2:30 in the morning.
So I go in and I have my little doggies and the woman says to me, "I'm sorry, we don't take any dogs." By now it's 2:47. I'm in my pajamas with the dogs and I don't have a place to stay in Atlanta. So I say, "Well, do these look like dogs to you or do these look like little people with fur?" And she said they looked like dogs to her.
So we were escorted out of the Crown Plaza Hotel.
Oprah Winfrey, on her trouble obtaining a hotel room with Solomon and Sophie, her American cocker spaniels. If you're traveling to Atlanta soon, the hotel has changed its no-dogs policy.
Both humans and dogs love to play well in adulthood, and individuals from both species occasionally display evidence of having a conscience.
Jon Winokur
They give unconditional love and undying loyalty in return for regular meals and an occasional pat on the head.
Jon Winokur
To a dog, motoring isn't just a way of getting from here to there, it's also a thrill and an adventure. The mere jingle of car keys is enough to send most any dog into a whimpering, tail-wagging frenzy.
Jon Winokur
It is fatal to let any dog know that he is funny, for he immediately loses his head and starts hamming it up.
Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (P.G. Wodehouse)
After I finish PO5, I would like to get a dog. I want to be able to spend more time with my pet, and I don't have the time right now.
Scott Wolf
We only have one dog now. Calamity Jane had to be put down. She was very old, and her medicine no longer controlled her seizures. Dilly is five now, I think. He's a neutered American Pit Bull Terrier, very gentle, about the color of buckskin.
Gene Wolfe
The Heimlich maneuver works on house pets. My pit bull was choking on his dinner. I squeezed his stomach and the neighbor's cat shot right out.
Scott Wood
I have consolidated all Barbara Woodhouse dog quotes onto one page.
Even his sleep was full of dreams. He dreamt as he had not dreamt since the old days at Three Mill Cross—of hares starting from the long grass; of pheasants rocketing up with long tails streaming, of partridge rising with a whirr from the stubble. He dreamt that he was hunting, that he was chasing some spotted spaniel, who fled, who escaped him.... Then he opened his eyes. There were no hares, and no partridges; no whips cracking.... There was only Mr. Browning in the armchair talking to Miss Barrett on the sofa.
Virginia Woolf, in a biography of Flush, a cocker spaniel owned by Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
Flush was dognapped and held for ransom. Barrett (before her marriage) negotiated directly for Flush's release due to a lack of funds to pay the ransom.
